LA360 compression

You said before you got a short time frame to get it ready for the shop doing the engine swap.
I'd would put it together with the aluminum heads and call it a day.

What gears are going with the rear end swap ? A set of 3.55 would be good compromise but 3.23-3.91 will work and are you adding a stall? like a 2800-3500 rpm.
yes, doing a 3.55 suregrip swap.
