I am building a 8th mile drag car. It is a tube chassis from Jegs and Jegster front end. The body is a 1979 Triumph Spitfire, That will run a small block chevy 383. I was able to pick this engine up at a steal, it is a short block. Eagle (looks forged) steel crank, scat hardned i beam rods, 13:1( with 64cc heads) pop up KB pistons and all the good rings and bearings etc. Has never been ran, guy was laid off from work and had to sell it. I am looking for a awesome combo for this car and engine. I have some things laying around in the shop like ,I have a turbo 350 tranny from TCI I could use and a set of AFR aluminum heads...210 runners, 205/165 valves, 600 lift springs. I also have the MLS head gaskets for it. drag race oil pan w/ windage tray 7 doors ,crank scraper,HV oil pump and a oil and heat deflector for the lifter valley. The rear end is stub 9 inch ford 38 sline strange axels but no 3rd member yet. I am looking for ideas on a cam, intake,gear, stall,carb etc.. any information you guys are willing to give me would be awesome!
