Just one more thing too. A sensible combination of parts at an affordable price, 7000 revs is a sensible ceiling for both big & small blocks for an everyday street car. My 440 with TRW 2355 six-pac pistons on just polished & shot-peened rods did 10,-Yes! Ten years before it needed a tear-down. Nearly 180'000 miles. And I used to do about 50 1/4 mile drags a year using street tires so that i could sit on 6700-7000 doing wild full-lock to full-lock power slides. Wasn't fast, but who cares,the crowd loved it & so did I. Thats why Fuel Altered's wer a crowd favourite in their day. In this country there is a huge following of American Muscle Cars doing cercuit racing as well. Crowds of 10,000 easy,& for a country of 4'500'000 people, thats big. We even have Mopar National Drags,& over 100 Cars arrive. Awesome! Mike
