    Well I'm wanting to start fresh from a bare block and rebuild new. I have 2 daily drivers so this won't be used other then as a toy and not until it is finished. I have time and I have some extra money so I just want to be ale to start but all that's holding me up is trying to learn about determining what I need to accomplish what I want. That's all I'm just not familiar with figuring out the measurements/ ratios needed I don't want to start buying parts that won't fit or that won't do what I want

    While you are waiting for Tech's recommendation to arrive, here's an on-line site that will give you some basics: Wallace Racing - Automotive Calculators

    Richard - thanks - I've been looking for that one but just couldn't Google the right name - I'm ordering a copy for myself
