MiniMGT to a big block

[Riz23]

Hello family. I am considering trying to convert my brand new Associated Mini MGT to a big block. I have been told that it wouldn't work but I won't take no for an answer. Can anyone help me with a game plan to see this through?

New era has a kit:

I'd suggest a lower end 21 so you get a smaller cooling head that's less likely to hit the ground on roll overs and not so much power that your shelling diffs and drive train parts.

Thanks. That really helps alot. I am going to put this kit on order asap. Is there anything else that I should be aware of or look out for?

I'd just make sure to maybe check into getting spare slipper parts and check the diffs... things that BB's tend to chew up when shoehorned into a SB rig.
