I'll second tim on this, 456 is what I would use for 35's if your going to drive it on the street. You will need another center chuck to put your lock right into.
I agree with chuck that some times gears are better than braking down a hill. Something to consider is a modifed vavle body. I run the auto tranny and I have compresion braking. I pop it in 4low and wratchet down to 1'st. Dont have to use the brakes much.
This is done with an aftermarket valve body. Mine is old school, but you can get them from b&m or Art carr. Add a wratchet shifter and crawl away.
