The 540s make like 640+ but they are Fing expensive maybe I will build a geniv with a holley XP, in gold of course. And those grain truck tranny's aren't perfect but they are like 14s, cheap and tough as nails. plus I have a ranger.

K30 with a 6.2
- Thread starter 80' 427
- Start date
just a reminder my K30 with a no compression, tiny cammed, peanut port 454 that quit at 4000 was one of my favorite truck engines, it would boil the 37s and would bury the 37s. In bummer deep snow it would pull 3rd low wide open.

Real work test doesn't show the same as the raylar website. Plus I think that 625hp or whatever they show.... im sure is with their heads and cam. I didn't see that advertised?
Raylar 4.75 crank kit is 3200... thats a fair chunk of change for a raylar sticker on the back window.
Let's face it when it come 8.1 stuff, raylar is the only game in town. And we all know they are very proud.
It doesn't make sense to me. But whatever works for you.

Is there an 8.1 tunnel ram?

Closest one is going to get.
I'm always down for an 8.1 swap.

Wiring harness woes. Soon, soon......

Seems that everyone swapping these has some sort of wiring problems. I don't get it.
Yep, and I am not the one to throw $650 out to a company that seems to have these same issues anyways. Baby steps, but we'll get there.

So how much money will you have in wiring/sensors and suchforth?
About $150

With your jy harness and paying to have it worked?
Yes correct.
I will likely go Holey terminator X. Cam, intake porting, mild head clean up, forged pistons, good headers, should be an easy 550hp 600+ftlbs. Then I can add E85 and or a small dry kit.

Any closer to slipping an 8.1 in this?
