The above set-up will work well with a close ratio 4 speed with a 3.55 gear
or a wide ratio with a 3.36 gear.

Install a 3.75 stroke and make 17% more power over the 3.25 stroke. That is like a free 60hp shot of n02.
for long highway trips, use 9 to 9.25:1 cr, compcam 260H, 3.08 gear, and a wide ratio 4 speed.
