Im trying to decide to either run T/SA or U/SA with the 302 2V or G/SA or F/SA with the 351C I just need a block and a Holley 0-3310C or I could just build a footbrake bracket car. Im not really shur what direction I wanna go or what would make the most sense? I also have a Jim Paquet C4 4800 stall converter.

I would suggest building the 302 2 barrel.
Not because it's the best combination, but because it's the most economical way to get your feet wet in Class Racing and you can bracket race it all day long.
You will be able to get 400-500 passes on it with no issues.
Then decide after a season or two, what direction to go.
Ford 2 barrel, best guy is Brian Seaburg, #1 at Indy this year with a 302 2 barrel. Don't know if he does them for others.
Good luck with what ever you build .
