The cam is a solid roller with over 260 degrees on the intake side at .050", and the headers are with 1 7/8 primaries, intake Victor W2 with 2" open spacer (just for street credibility) and a 750 holley. It made 587 hp at 7000 at dyno, and has so far run 10.2 in my light '64 Valiant, but still learning how to use the DN 4+1 manual. In this video the engine was sputtering though in all runs since the distributor cap was loose... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ufoy89RoEQ



LOL the W-2 is light years ahead every single conventional small block Chevy 23 degree head. Period. I watched another engine builder in 1985 spend months trying to adapt W-2 heads to his SBC.

Your combo shows what a decent prepped set of W-2 heads will do.


Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C. Alston
