 Under
this hood is a lightly modified 355
Chevrolet small block. 4bolt main, main
studs, cast crank, stock rods with Kieth
Black hyperuetetic flat top pistons
wrapped in Sealed Power gapless rings.
Cam is a solid lifter Crane 488/500 lift,
278/288 duration. Heads are AirFlow
Research 190cc street pieces with
2.02/1.94 valves operated by Crane Gold
1.6 roller rockers. Carb is a lightly
reworked Holley 600 vacume on top an
Edelbrock Performer RPM manifold. The
fire is lit via Mallory Unilite
distributor controlled by an MSD 6a box.
On the Desk Top Dyno, this showed about
340 hp and 350 ftlb torque. Exhaust is
handled by an old set of 1 5/8"
headers flowing into a 2 1/2" dual,
equalized system. This car is a real kick
in the pants to drive, although I don't
have the huevos to stay in it to see how
fast it is. Click the LINK to see where I

 Four
bolt main "010" casting (big
deal), I've run a 10.50 et at
Bakersfield's Famosa Drag strip with a
2bolt main motor running 13 to 1 pistons
and never broke anything. So now I'm
running a street motor with 4 bolt mains
and 10 to 1 compression! |
