Oh I don't know about that, if I put the bullet .668 lift cam and an 8" vert behind this motor and then put it in my old 69 Dart I think it would be a much more fair combination to compare it to. The Rocky is just a play toy, it's got a 9 1/2" street converter in it and a low lift cam. I didn't intend for the Airwolfs to go on this motor....but I'm sure I'm not the only one on Moparts who'se changed plans before ... good enough for me at this stage of my life is...well....good enough!

The heads will be here if I choose to max them out someday...or not. As the combo sits they're really no better than the SDSS 2's I had on it, maybe not as good. But to me that's still better ( and a lot more fun ) than them sitting collecting dust like millions of dollars worth of race parts are all over the country in countless garages.

I used to go wide-open, volume to 11 all the time. Now I find if I don't push it to the limit, I don't go as fast...but I also don't tear stuff up and I get to go out and have fun with my friends a lot more often. And I like that, a lot

Si don't blame the heads just because I concieously chose not to test them to their limits....it runs so sweet I really don't justify changing the cam for the couple of tenths I'm sure is there. Heck if I want to go faster I can pull the tops and gate off the Rocky, maybe I'm just lazy....or maybe it's quick enough for me right now. the only time I ever opened the hood was to show people what it had....never turned a wrench the whole week-end! And my reputation was made not for always having the quickest car, but it was made for always having the car you didn't want to bet against, cause it was always a lot quicker than it looked
