I've been wanting a big block small car for a while and finally built one!! Huge thanks to Restored and Turnin Rust for extra footage.

YES! a BIG BLOCK! It will be interesting to see what results you get.

I followed your build when you did the 420 swap, unfortunately I followed too close 🤣 I don't have the top end because it's too low geared but now Turnin Rust owns the car so not sure what will happen with it. I'm anxious to build another though!

I was beyond excited until i saw the Predator lmaooo. I have almost the same project in my garage. My 87 Chevy Sprint (Metro's older brother) now has a Mustang 2 Kmember/suspension and an 8.8 rear end in it. Unibody-on-frame so itll be pretty stout. LS 6.0 install coming soon. Working on tubbuing out the rear for drag radials and cutting out the firewall and trans tunnel next. I plan to fab the hump out of roof flashing.

This is a great project. Maybe with a 21 or 19 tooth sprocket the gearing will be good an fuel economy should be well over 40 mpg.

Given the short tire size I think a 19 tooth would put it in the 55-60 mph range.

@@Crossthe_line can you please give an estimate as to how much it cost to do this swap. This cvt setup seems better than using a centrifugal clutch.

That's awesome! Have you ever watched Robot Cantina? I think he did some mods to one of these motors to help with top speed and whatnot.
