wow that thing runs.. i mph'd similar to that with my cammed 355 lt4 but my 60 ft's could come close to your auto.


The combo runs pretty good for what it is. I like that the engine can do it while fitting under a stock hood. The ET and MPH are both being held back by my low shift points. The trans shifts about 900 RPM too soon.

The combo has 3 things going for it: stroker crank, HR cam, and AFR heads. The intake is less than ideal given the low shift points, moderate cam, 3.36 gears and low stall converter. I'd like to run an RPM airgap, but it won't fit under hood. When I tested the old combo at the track, the Team G was worth .2 seconds and almost .5 MPB vs a Weiand 8120 low-rise dual plane intake. So, I doubt I could improve the ET with a swao to the 8120, or an old C3B I have.
