my Low dollar 318 hop-up project

I’ll add that the low-dollar 318 has never been given its opportunity to shine its full potential. This engine would have benefited greatly from a nice converter and a set of 3.55’s. Running high 14’s @ almost 95 mph with 2.76’s, stock converter, and no headers shows what potential there maybe in such a mild 318.
So I looked to see where this thread/project was left off almost a year ago. So, what was mentioned in this ^^^ quote is now part of the car. It has PTC converter, Headers, 3.55's (still open). It's just waiting to get back to the track. I'm the hold-up at this point.
