Be more specific about what you currently have and I'm sure we can hook you up.

2 BBL or 4?
Headers?
Dual exhaust?
Cam/heads?

Is this your '79? If so, there is about 50 hp in exhaust work alone if you have the stock system still on it.

is that a berlinetta? if it is, ur gona want to rip that rearend out for sure if its stock, i have a berlinetta and just by ripping that old 2.62 or w/e it was out and puting a 3.xx or higher posi in its going to get up there ALOT faster. but since were on this topic, i have a 305 in mine, 650 Edelbrock Peroformer Carb \ Edelbrock Performer intake \ comp cam 268 \ dual exaust (came with car no idea). my balancer is off and i need to either replace the seal or get a new one to time it at top dead center but after this is done, im gona try fixing it up a little before i make my mind up with im gona drop a new crate engine in it. any sugestions? and if you sugest some headers gimmie some options, i looked @ some shorty afterburners
