Critique my planned combo

I agree with ditching the pinion snubber...If the SS springs are working properly, that pinion snubber will be doing nothing...Also, as great as caltracs are, it seems many get the SS springs to work well, so if you already have them I would try them first.

As for the engine combo, sounds good to me (I am no expert), but I will say you might pick up if you switch to a bigger carburetor...If you have any buddies willing to let you try say a 950HP carb on that after you get the 750 figured out just to see if it picks up with some fiddling, then you can know for sure if you want to step up to the larger carburetor.

At 3000lbs, with the right converter, I can't see high 11's even being an issue....faster should be cake I would think...and yes, if the car isn't painted or you don't care, I would fibreglass the hell outta it if its a race car...Still wish I had done a glass trunk lid on mine before I got the car painted
