The builder equiped the engine with Keith Black Pistons and Eagle Crank and Cam Shafts to insure strength as the engine is put through its paces. The engine is supported by an eight quart oil pan, nascar designed 3 core radiator, electric cooling fans, MSD high output ignition system, and a 373 positrac rear end. The exhaust is an over piped flow master 50 series dual exhaust providing the breathing the engine needs. The transmission is a 700r4 with less then 100 miles on the transmission. All suspension bushings are eurothane and the rear suspension is the nascar box design. There is no filler on the car. When it was restored all damaged sheet metal was replaced with GM metal parts.
