Help! I Don't Speak Cam!

Thanks for chiming in, guys.

krazy: I tried speaking jive once, but hurt myself in the process. Also, I made an edit after you posted and stated the application was street. To tell you the truth, I haven't really made up my mind about single or dual exhaust. Since I'm not doing any bracket racing and won't likely be above 5K revs (at least not very often), my thought was the big single option would do OK.

DR: I downloaded a factory manual yesterday, but my Luddite self can't figure out how to unzip the file. As far as the build I listed above, it's based on usage and available parts. I know there are many opinions and preferences out there, but I'll try this package first. I can always change some stuff later (not that I want to - I'd rather do it right the first time).

64physhy: Thanks for the links. I'll be doing a bunch of reading tonight.

moturbopar and mgguner: The rearend is stock and so is the trans ('75 833). The rearend is from a '64 w/ slant six, I think a 170 w/ 904 automatic. All I know is it's a stocker. I also don't know the ratios for the 833. I know I have more research to do on this. The SP2P was chosen partly for low end torque.

RRR: As stated above in the initial post, I am going hydraulic. You've made it more than clear in another thread you disapprove of my engine choice. I respect your obvious devotion to this forum and experience. I just wish the public comments you make toward me and my project reflected something other than negativity and reflected more of the biblical teachings you espouse in your signature. Of course, you can always PM me should you wish to continue on your same course.

GR.
