Odd build need cam help
We'd really need the full combo, meaning rear gear, tire size, and the weight of the car, to make a reasonable recommendation. If the stock trans comment means a stock converter...I'd forget about the TR.
With that said, it could be workable with a, decent converter, high lift moderate duration cam, along with small primary carbs like some 500 Eddy's or possibly some 600 "1850" Holley's. Tuning would really make it a "make or break" endeavor depending on the final total of the parts used.
Let us know any info you can.....
