You can go a bit higher on the compression.
Fit an electric fan and use Pattons fan eliminator or similar - it'll make the
edis install much easier, since you can turn a lip on his boss for the disk.
But then you've probably already worked that out, right?
Are you going to fit headers? They give you a bit more room to work with
around the intake.
If you build your own plenum, use something like a Mustang 4.6TB and one of
the cable setups from Ratco to actuate. That way you can keep the stock
pedal.
The distributor you can blank off. Same for the mechanical fuel pump.
How are you plumbing the return?
