    Since I am tubbing the truck and can really install whatever leafs I would like.
    I have tried to find A Body Mopar leaves as they have the shortest from segment and Cal-tracs are readily available for them but they are getting hard to find used.
    I might use S-10 leaves as they are easier to find and again cal-tracs are readily available for them.

    If I had the $$$ I would go split mono leafs with Cal-tracs.

    My friend is going to widen a set of rims for me just like he did in his Dart. I might go 275 or 325..

    As I accumulate more parts, I and working on an HEI igntion with an old Crane Cams Two Stage Rev Limiter I had in my Big Block Aspen Years ago.

    I assume this stock 1985 318 with a good intake, but stock everywhere else should at least go into the 15's.

    I'll worry about heads, cam etc after I get it back on the road. The key is to drive and enjoy it.

    I'm sure the 1985 318 only made 150hp net in 1985 and the 4 barrel intake won't give it more than a better look since everything else is stock...LOL
