B&D, I'm not that familiar with your coupe, but many 351w based engines have issues with hood clearance when trying to maximize hp. The Webers may make this less of an issue. The shorter deck 302 based 347 may be a better bet, but check with Ryan to see if this is a significant consideration.

6 speed all the way, your car is a grand tourer, a 6th gear is magic on the highway.

Nice car, you know that that is the old Contemporary/Upstates Coupe. You will enjoy it. Is he supplying the suspension or is Cobraracing?

Simple - Dart Short Deck stroker 363ci with webers.
Arguably the same reliability & rev-ability as a 347, but with a few extra inches.  |
