Default Let's get real

My purpose for the car? Have fun! Drive it around town mostly, an occasional road race event. I don't intend this car to be a serious racer. As you can see from my engine choice (347) I'm not taking the big buck route-a new baby girl and private school tuition for my son helped make that choice for me.
What I want to do is get this car finished and drive it! I've had 2 toploader cobras, and thought both times I didn't like TL's. Maybe they were not set uo right? Does anyone have any experience with a David Key TL? How do they shift? Is it comparable to a T-5 or a TKO600?

What could I expect RPM's to be with this combo:
Toploader-wide ratio
Rear end: 3.54
Tires: 265/50r/15

or this combo:
TKO600-.62 OD
Rear end: 3.54
Tires: 265/50r/15
