Long-off 340 build

Go get an automatic if cruising is your focus.
The cam dictates where your cruise rpm range will be and what gears it recommends as well to perform well...then you can figure the transmission or od you need...tire size will also impact. .......so what cam do you plan on running?
Just because I wanna cruise doesn't mean I dunno how to drive a stick (emphasis on FUN street machine, just something that won't be too insane for regular driving)

I'm not sure exactly on the cam, that's the thing. Nothing with too crazy since I'd prefer to have enough vacuum to power brakes (although now that I think about it there are options for a canister or electric vacuum pump). If I use this thumper cam, I'll definitely have to use an alternate source of vacuum for the brakes > http://www.jegs.com/i/COMP-Cams/249/CL20-601-9/10002/-1?ymm=4294829732+4294829634+4294828937 Looks like a pretty high lift for trying to utilize any vacuum

I wasn't planning on straying on the ride height or tire size, so I figured I'd stick close to stock there (just not the stock Polyglas compound)
