Any help will be appreciated.

Bore the block to the next size to clean up the cyc. TRW forged flat top pistons(4 valve relef) mopar 280dir. .474lift cam, edelbrock performer intake with a 600cfm holley vacumn 2nd-arys, 2500 stall, 3.55`s with 28" (or taller) tire, 3.23`s with shorter tire...
That should give you good driveablity for the highway aswell as good power for that lite of a car.
Hope this helps.
Joe
