If I could get my combo to get me into the 10's with some tweaking and fine tuning I would be happy.

My small pump gas 484 Hemi has gone 10.84/6.80 with my street tires. I had a miss in the ignition all summer, and I am kinda PO'd I couldn't find it and get a good run all year..Also kinda PO'd when I researched the cam its a chevy grind cause I thought my mid range seemed light...

I figure with some work, 10.50's should be in my future...But we will see. When I had a real cam in the engine and injection on it, it made a bunch more Hp and I was hoping for 9's but my valve train let go first...





Small 484 Hemi. Man how times have changed from the 70's as I dont remember anybody running strokers back then and now just about everyone I know runs a stroker. Nice running little Hemi. Ron

Well most of the people on here own a 572 or bigger...I will put my 484 into the sub 10.50's this year. I might have found the miss. I don't feel bad as we had a guy here with a street car and a 528 Hemi and it only went 11.60's...It had dual carbs and fouled out plugs pretty bad all the time.

If you are getting into the 10's I wouldn't feel bad either. I've seen guys with 528 hemi crate motors that couldn't get into the 11's.
My 440 with basically stock heads ran better than that back in the 80's in a 70 Cuda.

10.50's sounds great until you read guys going 9.30's with one with a bigger bore..I could change cams and go from the very mild .590 solid back to a .740 roller if I want to run 9's, but streeting it will kill the valve train. If I could run the Barton valve train, then maybe we would move up in cam. Oiling the top end can be an issue.

Thats what I meant that a 484 ci eng is small by todays standards of the strokers we see today. But in the 70's we would have considered it a big eng. I did not mean to offend you in any way as even my 493 is a small stroker out there today. Ron

Don't worry about it...It runs ok for what it is, but there is so much more potential in it. Streeting it kills valve train parts, but it was faster.

I have been contemplating going 572 or 604, but then I have a bottom end that is bullet proff I need to sell. Also the car is only legal to 10.0
