Well if you got a 350 with a thumper cam then your going to have some headaches to get this thing tuned and hopefully you have heads that flow good enough and also some decent compression and hopefully you have a good timing curve on your distributor cause those thumper cams are made with a lot of overlap and a very tight lobe separation angle which gives it that rump rump sound but the rump rump cool sound is actually something that is not good as its a process of insufficient combustion at idle and a bunch of other stuff which I can't totally explain and bore you to death.
The thing with high overlap cams is they create a lot of exhaust reversion cause of high amount of overlap and thus because of that the carburetor signal is worse with also the engine having way less vacuum and that makes the idle mixture needing to be a lot richer in order for it to run and also they have to have a higher idle to run and that creates a lot more tuning adjustments and also needing to re calibrate the idle circuit on the carb most of the time as out of the box its usually not good enough especially with bigger cams like these and also you will need to run a lot of initial timing so it will run right or you will be chasing your tail trying to get your carb to idle and your engine to run.
I have dealt with stock to wild cams and I once had the big mother thumper hydraulic roller cam and it was a beast to get running on the street and hopefully you at least have the smallest one as the bigger ones are a nightmare as they are more for sound then performance for the best results but they still can make some power with the right combos but are not the best cam out there for the best performance for a street cam but they still can be made to work but you will suffer with a lot of not so very good street manors. But that opinion on what is good and bad street manors differs among the fellow hot rodders.
Once you get your carb I am sure you will post and want and most likely will need to be given some help and guidance on how to get this beast running and tuned right. I will be glad to help you out as best as I can and have dealt with many of the big cams and got the tunes good so there is no bogs and junk but I just hope you have a decent distributor and ignition system cause that has to be in good condition first and also your timing will have to get recurved to run with this cam. As far as knowing your rear gear ratio you can sometimes get an idea if you have a tachometer and know what your rpm is at 55 mph and measure your tire height and you can then go on an online rpm calculator and type in some different gear ratios and get a ballpark idea on what you have.
The only true way to know what you have is you have to count the ring gear and the pinion gear teeth count and you do a formula to get the exact number but below is a video on how you can get a rough estimate.
