[ea73z383]

Hey hows it goin'??
I'm new to this site, and new to building and tuning cars. Sorry if these these questions seem alittle obtuse. :oops:

I'm in process of building a all steel-except 4" cowl hood '73 Z/28 not sure of weight.3400-3600lbs


388ci sbc
11.4:1 comp
Dart intake(single hi-rise) port matched
Dart Pro 1 heads--215cc/64cc/2.05in/1.60ex--out of box
Comp Cams Magnum S294 248@.050/.560 lift w1.6 rockers/110LS
Hooker super comp 1.75 headers
Holley 750DP
M20 4spd w/supercase-- iron midplate(2.56 first)
McCleod twin disk kevlar/ceramic clutch
12 bolt 30 spline w/4.10's eaton posi
stock springs w/3 way adj. shocks on front(comp eng.)
stock leaf springs w/stock shocks on rear
NOS 250hp cheater

This car will be mostly street driven with weekends at the track:

My questions are:

What kinda power could I expect to have? and possible E.T.'s on motor and bottle?

What would be a good set-up for rear suspension-would like to run 275/60/15 drag radial
1. ladder bar w/floaters
2. lift bars(south side machine type)
3. Cal-Tracs

What about front suspension?

Would a larger carb be beneficial?


Any help would be great......thanks
