Although some of this might be better suited for the transaxle section, I'll post it here. I plan on useing a crate 331 from Blueprint engines, rated @ 375 with 390 Tq. The roller cam they use is on 112* seperation, so not very lumpy sounding. This is a carbed engine and that is fine with me.
I hope to use a Griffin (sp) 5 spd transaxle. I think a 3.55 rear gear, with the optional 2.20 1st gear and the 0.61 5th should make a decent driver. Would I be better off with a 2.4 1st gear, or a 3.7 rear gear, rather than my choice. My plan is not to build a race car, but meerly a driver, as we travel light. Thanks, David :undecided:
