Re: Starting line ratio too steep?
I actually thought about a Proflite transmission at one time to gear it the same with a 4.56 gear for 1/4 mile. This car has dipped in the 5's N/A. I ran it to the 1000 ft 8000rpm and coasted 9.59 118 mph with the powerglide 1.69 .500 final.
All this kinda apply's to what you're doing Op. With your weight you'll probably run similar numbers.
Good luck!
