Top Loader, WIDE RATIO, 3.31 gears, done! With all the torque your going to have you MUST AVOID going to a TO LOW overall first gear ratio. Get it TO low and it WILL be useless and result in "annoying" wheel spin when you least expect it!

Get some SERIOUS tires! This is a MUST! You NEED to have serious traction. I like the old 60's style bias Goodyear BIG white letter tires (traction is outstanding)! Bf Goodrich T/A's? Don't even go there!

Single four barrel, (I know I have DUAL fours, what a pain in the butt).

So the sidepipes take up some horse power? You gonna have 500-600, so whats the problem here? The freakin' car only weighs 2500 pounds! Trust me, it WILL be fast, and your ears will thank you. I'm thinking about getting some QUIETER side pipes and if I'm lucky maybe the motor will LOOSE a few more horse, because,,,, well I have enough to totally fry the tires now anyway!

,,,didn't know the tunnel port came in a dual plane model?
