About to mod my virgin 318

What gears and converter do you plan to use ? What about rear tire size ?

Tire is 245-45-17 25.7" diameter.

Not sure what gear is in it. It's not a steep racing gear. I'll have to count the driveshaft rotations when the rear end is in the air this afternoon.

Converter is whatever came with it. Again.. probably pretty close to stock.

you are using a used cam?

Yes.

Picked up the parts from a local guy who pulled out his 340 for a big block.

What's the issue with running a low mileage used cam? It's used the moment I start the motor.
