What do you have for a combo? It looks like you have an Indy intake and Edelbrock heads from your pictures. Your car should run real well.

10.36 Combo:
Stock block +.030
Aluminum main caps
Stock index ground crank with reduced counter weight dia.
LY rods ,polished, shotpeened, bolts etc.
Ross domed pistons. 12.3 actual compression
Total-Seal rings
Ultradyne .613 lift cam
Fully ported 906's with near Max wedge openings(required a little weld on top of intake ports)
2.18 intake valve,1.81 exhaust 289.9 cfm intake, 221 cfm exhaust
ductil iron rockers
Indy Intake with epoxied runners to match heads
950 HP holley
modified 2 inch hooker B-body headers
Turbo-Action 8inch 3800 converter
4.88 Dana w/ spool
Ladder bar/leaf spring suspension with Alston floaters(old school but works great)
14x31 Goodyears
spring and fall air in the Northeast is incredible

Your car should easily run low tens or better. I've got a friend with a 500 inch/Hensley ported edelbrock,.650 CompCams, combo in a 64 B-body that runs 9.90's at 3300 lbs with 4.56's,pure race car but runs real well. You have excellent airflow and a great combination. Get your suspension working well and your gonna fly. 8)
 
I put the Rancho 9000's in, and am now swapping the 4:10 spool for a 4:88 ls, We'll see if I can get the front wheels off the ground like MikesDuster.

You dont need 4.88s for that. Just have BigEdsGarage photoshop it.
 
I got a bunch done today. Replaced bolth lower control arms and strut rods, Drilled my rims for rim screws, messed with the carb alittle more, Changed the pump cams wich help alittle, and cut a piece of sheetmetal for the rear firewall.
 
I ran my 3/8's flex tranny lines today an changer the front break pads,also mounted my seat harrneses
 
Got the 4:88's in the rear and the Cal-Tracs on one side all set. Along with the Reworked spring, took it apart and put a few different leaves in it. Can't wait to sit it on the ground and make sure it sits ok, and wont' hit the tires. Then it's off to the track next Saturday to see if I can get it to do this

Got my squirters and a few jets in the mail today. Hopefully that will fix my surge/hesitation problems. I also started to strip down the 5.2 magnum. Brought the heads and a few other parts home with me.

Also got my new MoparMuscle mag today with a Magnum head article in it.
 
pos mopar harness is gone, and the car is rewired
front end rebuilt with .810 bars
battery is in the trunk now
just waiting on the machine shop for the motor and high 10's here i come :)
 
nightmare from hell----all i wanted was power brakes in the slant six car. so far, i have replaced the power booster (faulty unit), master cylinder(new aluminum style), left front caliper (broken bleeder screw), left rear wheel cylinder (broken bleeder screw), and both brake lines off the master cylinder (broke lines and fittings rusted to the lines).

still to replace is the right front caliper (broken bleeder screw) and prob should rebleed the entire system, just because. but hey, car stops alot easier now at least. and all this has only taken me about a week to accomplish. and i thought race car maintence/broken parts was bad........
