nhra w/sa

Ya know, just a little bit of advice, it seems to me that you don't have a car yet from the way that you are looking for parts. When ever I want to "play" with a combo that I'm not too familiar with, I try to get a running car or at least one that I can make into a running car to start out. Sometimes this will save a whole lot of time and money and lead to a decision as to how far to go. Some combos just don't come up to expectations (aah, the 2.5 Fiero SE for W/SA).
This Camaro is going to probably run the index OK but to proceed with it, it is going to get expensive in a hurry. The trans isn't going to be cheap at all once you start moving forward. It'll probably need a 7" converter and you're going to have AT LEAST a 12 bolt in it to get enough gear. Best bet would be to find (Good luck!) a Dana 44 service package rear from an 82-83 Camaro.
