At that point about 1/2 throttle. It is impossible to use full throttle in first gear.

It is an all alumimun 427FE stroked to 482ci 475hp and 525 ft lbs torque. I call it Fortes magic. I am sure Mike would love to have Jesse build another one.

I was not expecting that kind of power when I bought the 3rd member. It was the first purchase after ordering the kit.

Lew I can understand that, I went 3.55's as one of my first purchases, I think even before I bought the kit, figuring I would be going with around 400 HP and 350 or so Torque and ended up around 502 on the torque... should make it fun though lol...
