damn I want a Fedex truck! my little shortbed would cook the hides with that kinda power, I couldn't imagine what injectors and a tune would produce

How does that compare to say a stock 305? I'm curious how a 1/2 ton transmission (4L60E/ NV3500) would hold up, seems like a lot of torque, but I have to wonder, if it's your daily driver, you'll never be making that engine produce that kind of torque. I assume you'd only want a 4L80E/ NV4500 if you plan on using all that power.
