Help Me With My Set-Up

Hey guys.
I have a '67 Firebird 400 that needs some work. The car runs but needs some fine tuning.

First thing is the Suspension. It really needs to be replaced, do you have any suggestions on Shocks and Springs. I want to lower it if I can.

Next is the Cam. The Cam in now if way to lumpy. I need one that I'll be able to drive on the street.

Last is the Carb. I'm leaning towards a 670 Street Avenger. I think it's a good carb but I havent heard much about it.

There's still more that needs to be done but this is the starting point.

Thanks for any help.

Sorry if I didnt give enough info about the car, I really need some sleep.

I have a 670 avenger carb.It works really good.It was tuned really close out of the box for the street on my 355,and the electric choke works really good.It comes with some different springs in the box for adjusting when the secondaries come in and the wires to hook up the choke.All I had to change was the float level on the secondaries a tiny bit and it was set to go.I would reccomend one to anybody.

Ok, thanks. I'm pretty sure I'm going with a Street Avenger.
