Cam in my little 360 is 260@50 as well and its just a touch over 10 to 1 itself. At over 500 inches hard to believe your cam is " too big"
How do you launch the car and what rpm is it crossing the stripe at?


Yea I spoke to several people who agreed they did not think it was too much.

There is no way I'm going to drop 1000 pounds, but, I plan on some fiberglass bumpers and hood.

I only got 4 runs in, the best time was launching at 3500, shifting at 7, and shifting into 4th just before the stripe.
I think I was at 5100 rpms or close.

Thanks for the reply!
