OK I am planning to get into some "Bracket racing" for fun on friday nights, with my 66 cuda. I am starting with a fairly clean slate, the previous owner states the engine was just rebuilt, and I have installed a freshly rebuilt a904. I just got my hands on a 2bbl intake, and am awaiting my birthday on the 16th to find out weather or not I need to source a bbd, and lokar kickdown
Any way I do drive this car every day, so am not really looking to build a crazy car, just something fun. Here is what I have in mind, let me know if I am way of base, or could get better bang in another fashion:
Super six intake
Carter BBD
Dutra Duals
dual 2 1/4 or 2" Exhaust?
Mill head .100?
NO2 perhaps 75 or 100 shot (What is Safe on stock type internals?)
What are suggestions for suspension Mine seems tired, I am thinking about one of those poly kits from just suspension up front, and some sort of leaf spring upgrade in the back. Will I be making enough power with the things mentioned above to warrant any special suspension parts for launching/Wheel hop etc.?
Also what order would you suggest I do the modifications in as I can only really spend $500-1000/ month.
Please keep in mind, that I live in Canada, and I drive this car all the time, so keeping it streetable is important, as well as cold weather drivability.
