Title: 454 TH400 Swap into Impala
Post by: ImpinAintEasy on February 15, 2012, 10:29:35 PM
Lookin at a 454 TH400 Swap in the impala finally. Getting parts together. Slow process, play money is running low. So far I got the running motor, cam lifters, intake, valve springs, headers, distributor, gonna order up some valve covers, timing chain, oil pump, water pump etc etc. got most the big stuff. Also going with custom gauges and black leather buckets with a ratchet shifter and shift kit.....Just a normal everyday average guy.....motherf***** :mad:

I have Thrush welded Muffs....Good choice, 'cause they don't do any quieting whatsoever.  Wasn't happy with the short cherry bombs, so I switched to the welded muffs to quiet down.  Yeah....no.  Nice woodpecker though.  Looks like your 454 is really nice!  Should be substantially louder than mine.  Don't have to have a CD player.
