What is the best bang for my buck?

You are rated at 217 HP soft compared to the Novas, I would put in a 6.14 gear. What tire are you running, Radial? A three speed would also mean converter change and shifter. Unless you find used stuff it would be a lot of cash. What headers do you run? How close are you on weight?Small radials were 15 hun quicker than the bias tires good carb spacer

Tom has some excellent ideas. A 30 x 9 radial might work with your combo …
