383 stroker, dish pistons 8.5:1 compression, BmCRace custom tiged SS headers, twin T3 or T3/T4, AVS Thunder series 750CFM, custom tiged aluminium air box, start with a TH350 with a gear vendor until I get a T56 6 speed, 8.5" third member (same as a ford 9") with 3.73:1 posi or locker.

My body fat is 16%. Which puts me in the fitness catagory. 5'10 270#. I'm in the transitional stage of bulking up to toning. Muscle weighs more than fat. Thanks for playing but you lose. Go start a thread about how little you know about health. Just about anyone that works out going for huge results knows that you do bulking, toning, bulking, and toning is very effective.

yeah but you have to do the toning part after the bulking, not just more bulking.
