355/TH350/10b with 3.42s
suspension would be easiest, atleast IMO, just leaf sprigns with some custom ladder bars, or just a single anti-wrap bar.

probably high 14's with a lot of tire smoke
if it does hook up, RIP differential

As long as you use the Turbo II rear, it's all good! I have friends in the 9's using them. The mounts break before anything else, and there are good mods known the them.

In theory yes, in reality it would be too scary to go 145 in 9 seconds with a 1500 lb car. Either you would die on the first run, or end up stepping out of the car with legs so wobblie that you cant stand up then realizing that you just did a #1 and a #2. This is assuming that you have enough traction to do it without getting into wheelspin at 100 mph.
Humm, sound like fun!
Oh that 10 bolt will live for a couple of runs until you get some traction. If you went with anything higher than 3.42 then you had better go 12 bolt or 9". I think a 9" with 4.56 gears and a TH400 and a 4000 stall and some slicks would do nicely. Get some wheelie bars for it though.
