Default Thanks!

Thanks for your help guys! I will go with the crower springs & retainers, once I check the IH, to determine which # to use.

I am also a bit concerned about oiling! Though This 455 has warrior billet 4 bolt main caps & a SD 80 psi oil pump & 74 SD rods ( I know, too high psi, this is the way I bought the car ).

There likely is no reason to have a 4:10 gear in this car & turn 6200 rpm+, as I will always run a stock 26" street tire. No porting on the stock 72' d-port heads & #041 cam, I wonder what rpm I should shoot for through the traps? & what gear, maybe a 3:73 or even a 3:55? For this year I will be racing with the 4:10.

Any reccomendation for a good quality mech. fuel pump? Need no more than6psi for my Q-jet.

Thanks again guys!!
