accel 8.8 wires
T-56 manual
2.7*? gear (borg-warner)

start with 70 in the front and 74's in the rear. keep a spread of 4 when you change them. also watch your plugs, they want to be a light chocolate color
i have vortec heads on my car currently, they're 175cc heads. I have i believe a 74-76 in mine, and its been dyno tuned to a 13.1 ratio. Puttining it on a dyno with a wide band is the best way to go though. Don't go too small and drive it around though, its better to go richer than leaner
Start with 70 (as mentioned earlier), and keep checking your plugs. Black...too rich. White....too lean. Brown.....just right.
