Re: help help help

i would suggest the Edelborck 600 easier to tune than the others. I would suggest the 3.23 gears with 700r4 with about 800-1200 rpm stall speed. it should give you good cruisng rpms and decent fuel mileage. i have a similar set-up with a 350 L98 approx. 500 hp and i get 25 mpg on the high-way.
