Deryl, you have got to get more pictures!!! American engineering at it's best! Small block Chevy and a Cub Cadet. Best of two breeds. The more I look at it the neater it becomes. Got any pictures of the build?
i have a lot can i post them
 
I can assure you there are people here who want to see it. I don't know how many you can load at one time but I can't imagine anyone having a problem with any pictures as long as they are tasteful. No pictures of it buried behind pizza boxes and beer bottles. If front of pizza had beer. Keep your priorities straight! 🤣
 
here is some of the build of the cubchevy283 some videos are on you tube

Did you hook the Chevy four speed to the Cub hydro unit? Not that I am complaining but, wouldn't an SM 465 or 435 been shorter? Put that puppy in first!! It would take all day to go a mile but man you could pull a house down!! If it would hook up. That's flat out cool!

the valves where replaced with Elec valves. thank you for your time fun with cubs
 
Did you hook the Chevy four speed to the Cub hydro unit? Not that I am complaining but, wouldn't an SM 465 or 435 been shorter? Put that puppy in first!! It would take all day to go a mile but man you could pull a house down!! If it would hook up. That's flat out cool!
its hooked to a cub 3 speed
