I agree 100% with Chris. That what I did, no regrets.

msundstrom:
My combo is similar to yours but 9.8" deck with cheapo EQ iron heads but a splash of nitro with stack injector, 11.7:1 , 33 x 12 tire with 3.89 gears, glide with a TIGHT converter. I run only 1/4 mile so 1/8 mile gearing is probably different. Will probably be trying a 3.50 gear in the near future though. Did you specify your transmission option? Oh yes cam is 272/276 duration @ .050".

Msundstron, Sorry I did forget to specify what trans, but it's going to be a glide

I would use the same gear you would use for 1/4 mile . If you go too low with your rear gear it might make the car too violent on the starting line . I have seen a couple of David Beard's cars and they look really nice ! Good luck with it !
