Oh Ya 347,Edelbrock Alum.RPM heads w/2.02's & RPM int. w/650 Mighty Demon, Comp cam XE274H, 9.5:1 comp.,3000 stall,26" tall tires. I know the power band is around 2000-6000 rpm.
What size rear?
With an AOD, at least 3.55, most folks go for 3.73, some go as far as 4.+. (ratios based on an 8.8 rear, approximations can be made to the gears available to your rear end)
