Delta - thanks for all the links. I’ve read about half and will come back for the rest.
273 - I like the Hot Rod article. I think this will be my template due to the tested results, right around my goal.
Chill - the thread to which I refer is the first one in Deltas links.
One final thought - the car in question has a 7 1/4 rear end with 3.23 gears (don’t think it’s a sure grip). I am aware this is a limiting factor but prolly ok in the 282-300 hp range of The Hot Rod article?
