Put the glide in it. We tried the 400 route and have better luck with a glide.

For the power level, I would agree. I would wager the gearing in the glide will calm down the car to leave good, and then of course, the lighter weight of the trans and parasitic loss makes a huge difference. The only think I worry about is race weight when it comes to glides and from what I have exp. most Fbodies using them are in the 2900-3200 range.

This is what I would do.
