I had a beater 79ta years ago. I wish I kept it.
Anyway
Just decide if it’s going to see more weekends or more track time, cause you wont like the 3600 stall on the street. My 71 had a 3500 in a th400 then I went to a 2800 then to a 2200 and a 700r4. But I do weekends and almost never get to the track. The big block in od just gurgling down the street idling at 40 is kinda cool, and you have so much torque it don’t take long to get the thing revving off the line. Sometimes you get so stuck on making a low number at the track you loose the drivability. The only time the 3500 stall didn’t feel slushy is from a dead stop or wide open.
Good luck with your project.
