Needs more fuel system. Don't buy a 3500 stall, get one custom made for your application. Might as well just run an explorer trac-lock if you're only using 31 spline axles. Is this a street car? Everything else looks pretty good.

Cant decide either to call it a trackable street car or a streetable track car, leanin towards the latter of the two, it will be 2 seater with cage but will also have street manners and 20+mpg on street tune

I think you'd be fine with a Compstar crank which is what I quoted you on, but if you want an American forging the Dragonslayer is a great piece.
