Gearing ?

why are ya limiting yourself to a stock converter?

Cause the car will be primarily a daily driver and fuel economy is also important plus stock converter is what i got and really have no ET goal even though high 12's would be nice.

Since I'm eventually using a hydraulic roller with 1.6 rockers the needed lift around .500" - .525" won't be a problem. Probably be cut on 112 since I want a broad powerband. And say 260/270 degrees will give me plenty of down low plus work with stock converter I can add 10 degrees to those numbers since I'm gonna be running Rhoads lifters which will also give me the top end.

Also AJ/formS with his 360
3.55 x 3.09 x .89 (27" tires) = 9.76
Has a problem hooking up his drag tires
I'm gonna be running less width less sticky
My overall 1st will be
2.76 x 2.74 x .96 = 7.26
Far off from AJ's but not to far from the average 3.55's x 2.45 x .89 = 7.74.

I think I'll be doing ok out of the hole plus I'll have the 75 hp shot of nitrous to round out my performance.
