I still cringe (butthole still puckers up real tight) every time one of my new motors or a customers motors goes to full throttle against the water brake on the engine dyno the first cuople of times




can't tell you how nice it is to heat that! i also can't tell you how nervous i was going in there. first time he cranked it over, it cranked for about 3-4 seconds and then fired. my eyes got big and i thought "holy $hit, it works!" then it died after he let off throttle and i had this sinking feeling in my stomach, and he just said, "needs more timing."

so we adjusted it by sight, fired it up, and it purred like a kitten. i was awe struck! when we started doing the pulls, yup, butthole clenched right up! but after it made it to the first 5700 RPM pull, i figured it was going to be all right.

wow! what an experience!

I may have to look at CNC porting mine, I only had 367 at .6 and it was only 373 at .700, so I probably will come up short on power compared to yours. Tim

while that isn't bad, it will hurt on the power. tim, and others out there do some pretty amazing sutff with CNC.

it's just what you want in the end. the 472 has mopar aluminum heads that have been mildly ported, and flow about 330 @ .600. when i rebuild it, i don't know that i'm going to spend the money to have them done, or just call it a day and have it be a milder motor.

Mine is going into a street car so I think that I have more than enough horsepower, with a pair of 770 quick fuel carbs with annual boosters in the primaries, and 30 more cubic inchs, I am still a real power house. I did upgrade to the Jana 76 axle, that was a time consuming but learning project over the holidays. With only 9.5-1, I can travel anywhere and fill up. My goal is to drive it as much as I can afford to, as long as gas prices remain tolerable. Tim

methinks you will have more than the car can handle!
