My guy is the same price. That's why I was asking about the other parts. I'm going to have to start a spread sheet and lay this out I guess.
My converter will probably be a Continental unit with a 3000 stall and a lockup.
My biggest concern is "IF" I decide to run it on drag radials. Will it take the launch? If not, I'll stay off the track and move on to building a car for racing like I really should anyway.
