Victor Heads Victor 440 intake manifold 260/269* @ .050 / .650" ish lift solid-roller camshaft 2.5" headers Open Exhaust 1050 dominator ..13.2's @ 106? Something is seriously wrong here, you could & should easily have a 120+ MPH build. Going from a 3.73 to 4.10 gear is worth maybe .2-.3 tenths at best and not worth the cost. What brand converter? You have the foundation for a mid-11 second build in a HEAVY car without boost, you should be making near or over 600 HP on pump gas with a few changes [smaller primary tube headers & 250* / .600" solid-roller camshaft]. Sort out what's wrong with the power N/A before you stick the blower back on it. Last edited by Sweet5ltr; 11/26/19 06:13 PM. 1969 Plymouth Road Runner (440 w/ Boost!

I would not consider putting the blower back on until you figure this out. Those 2.5" headers need to go - I would look into a 2" primary tube header myself.
