8 3/4 gears

If your plan includes very sticky tires at a well prepared drag strip .. start keeping your eyes out for a D60...
If I could do it over Ida spent the $1200 building the D60 first instead of $1200 on the 8 3/4 blowing it up in 20 passes and THEN another $1200 on the D60...
But that's my story, hopefully yours is different...
