kgordonl,
I'm in the process of running a toplaoder behind my 427 ci small block that should make in the nieghborhood of 650 to 675hp and on top of that I'm gonna spray it just a little. I bought a larger input shaft 1 3/8" and the larger mainshaft 31 spline from David Kee's all because of the strength advantage and I am having the gears face plated by Liberty gear and I will also be running a Mcleod soft loc clutch set up.
It will be a while before the car is complete but the top loader is sure gonna be put to the test!
