Don't give up on that B/W before your friend looks at it. There are people here who have raced that same tranny for years! No, not the best you could do but still VERY usable for your situation. Now, for the 343! That's a well known high revver! Go with the Torker and maybe a 750 Holley? LOTS of power to be made there. Headers are a must, make sure your drive shaft is updated too! BTW, take everything I say with a grain or two of salt. I have not had many passes down the 1/4 mile, but not many people here drive a 343 B/W M11 EVERY DAY. Cool

Perhaps you could find the AMC adapter to install the nailhead trans on the AMC.

Lucky for me the waggy I stole the 401 from has a turbo 400 so my friend that built the trans is taking all the guts out and installing into the correct case. Just got done pulling it out by myself in the gravel with a flashlight, fun timesOuch
