sorry bill....
gonna be a turbo 350 to start...thomas arnett has assured me that is what i want and i trust him with all my transmission issues...he also build metrics

i intend to run belle rose with 275 low gear, powerglide input and my old convertor since i have no time to test it seems like a logical starting point.

however still as of 11/19/08 i have not recieved NHRA's blessing, but have compiled over 100 pages i will be sending them inlcuding all manufacturing info showing it was available from 57-61 in full size only behind everything rated LESS than 280 hp ??... all 6 cylinders, 283 and low hp 348

hey they only minted over 180,000 of them in 5 years... ya think if shelby gets his ONE (or was it 51)single 4bll car approved i could get an amen on almost a 1/4 million ... but again they hate my old dinosaur ***, i am sure they wish me and guys like me would just go away.
