together one of these.
Did that easy in my '69 mustang fastback with a FE motor, power glide and 4.56 gear.
(Ran 9.50's off the stop) Used a 427 block, stock tunnel port heads and intake and a flat tappet cam with .653 lift. (It could red light with the power glide without some delay. Struggled with the C-6)
Cheaper to use a 385 engine but like the others said stick with the glide.
