60919 is a bad cam for a street only car. I had one in a 462 it was lumpy with no bottom end. The 389 I took out of the car had more bottom end.

Jim Hand nailed it, use either the 068 or the Summit 2801 with 9 to 1 compression. That way you'll have smooth idling, vacuum for power brakes, brute off idle torque, and you can run a nice 3:08 or higher rear end.

Quit trying to build a drag racing car for the street.. It doesn't work. Street is a whole different thing, much more complicated.. Look up Jim Hand and Nunzi..

Change that rear end to a 3:08 and get a 13" converter in there for torque multiplication.. On the street the stator is the ticket..
