Thanks for your response.
It really isn't a question of how fast I want to go - the car is for street use, although I may track it occasionally.
I'll give you an example, I have a 2006 911 C4S and it is plenty fast for me. My concerns is that I will only buy one pantera and I don't want to be disappointed with its speed and wondering whether I made a mistake buying a '74 instead of a '72.
By the way, Seller is including some items with the sale, including 1. Holley 750 Carb, Sermatech Coated Performance Headers, and High Performance Mufflers - Chrome Finish. I haven't decided whether to make these upgrades.
On another note, I'm a little confused about your question regarding the timing gear. Can you please elaborate?
