    Re-badging my Square

    I just brazed in the badging holes on mine. I'll use the 3 m tape if I decide to have any badges after painting.I dealt with so much rust on this truck and I just want to minimize any chances of going through that again.

    Transmission opinions?

    Here's my two cents: I like the 700r4, had one built behind a 383 stroker with 460 HP in a c10 and never had a problem.
