I like your concept. Mine is very much the same, stock interior, and suspension, no tubs etc. I went with more cubes (500) and less gear (3.55). It has a hydraulic roller cam and 727 with an 11 inch convertor. Revs are 2500 at 60 mph on the highway. I run it thru the mufflers and the best so far is 11.53 at 118.5. I drive it to the track, race it, and so far back home again.
