Build story

Bought this 10 years ago and soon after dropped a valve. Parked it in the corner of my shop and it sat for 8 years because I was building my Road Runner. Now that I have said Road Runner finished, I pulled Lil Red out. I built the 408 stroker, trans and rear end 100% myself. (Besides machining). Ran engine on dyno at RR Performance in Spring Lake MN.

Built this for burnouts and smiles per gallon.
