thanks ron, i remember talking to you awhile back about that 557 stick and your combo. thats why i was looking at flow around .550

what i have planned: steel crank, stock rods, pistons in the 10:1 range (have to cc the combustion chamber still), the 906's from above, holley sd, 850 speed demon (got a screamn deal on it) 1" open spacer if it will fit, mp elec dist, and either the dough throleys 1 3/4 header or the tti 1 7/8

the car is a 71 runner, 727 3.55's lookn to buid a street car with nuts, it will get a little strip time but not much... dont have the budget for it



That is real close to my 440 as I use the Street Dominator intake with an 850 DP. I also use Hedman 1-3/4 headers with 3" exh. I use 4.30's but with a 30" tall tire. I drive it 55 to 60 mph all the time taching in the 3000 to 3400 rpm range. In fact I drove it almost 100 miles today (45 miles one way) on a 55 mph road to see my mom and dad. It was just to nice a day here in Md not to drive my 63. But it sounds like you will have a nice running car in the 500 hp area. Ron
