Though parts will be a pain to get. It's almost worth it to get it, put in a castle system, and see how it does!
On that note, just because it has a similar design to a savage does not mean the drivetrain will be any stronger than butter. My guess is that the diffs and tranny gears are not very strong at all. But who knows? Maybe all the gears are interchangeable with savage stuff. I would look into it before purchasing one


Built Ford tough, with Chevy stuff.
