    My Big Block Fox Finished Product...56k Warning

    The aluminum one in the pics is an edelbrock one i think, can't remember, it didn't flow enough at idle in heavy traffic. I know its not as good as the other brands, but i got it for free b/c i worked at an FRPP dealer. I don't think its the pan however. It will do it sitting still in neutral...

    What welding rods for sub-frame connector install?

    Yes, make sure your suspension is loaded via drive on ramps or air jacks in various places. I MIG welded mine on 4 years ago and they have held up to the TQ of the 466 since then.

    Unlike Bigfoot, BBF and 5-speed DO exist!

    My Big Block Fox Finished Product...56k Warning

    460 in my vert

    As far as clearance issues, no issues at all, but you must have a 5.0 double hump tranny x-member. Look in my other threads to see pics of my car, thats with all stock 5.0 suspension and it sits fine.
