Hmm thats cutting it kinda close...

I estimate youll run high 11s with good traction. Can the engine rev to 6.5?

through the traps about 5500

4.10's and 26" tire was about that so , i think it will be comparable

no, you need the 4.30's in the aod

you may need to go to a 26" tire still , after some getting used to it.

Engine Might have to get a Dart block but don't want to and if I do, then 363 instead of 331. Thoughts on what I've already bought so far.......
