    toe? auto spell?

    On the street--your rpm level will be below 4000 rpm 97.2% of the time------

    Get a Edelbrock dual plane square port and a Holley 950 Advengur carb with K & N extreme aie cleaner with drop base-----------

    You can look in Edelbrock cataloque and get deminsions Denny is referencing for the manifold that you have and compare to the others to tell if it'll fit without mods.

    And you can tell them that an engine builder told you not to paint your hood!!!!!!

    What size tires?
    As an average choice... I'd like the 3.73's But that's a guess.

    Street with no od----------- somewhere between 350-----411 depending on if its local or road trips-you got a 373 12 bolt-----run it and see, make adjustments from there-------I love the Ford 9 ers---so easy to swap pumpkins ( I usually use full floater Strange axle set up on mine so I can change pigs without even having to put the car on jack stands)
