http://videos.streetfire.net/video/Dodge-at-Greenfield_684899.htmFound this website the other night when I was looking to see if anyone else had a R5 in a drag car. I bought a roller cam version from Arrington's and put it in my Dart with a powerglide, 7000 converter, and 538 rear gear. The car has gone a best of 9.70 @ 139 mph. I've been tinkering with suspension and gears. You guys are right.. these motors like to rev. Change this weekend will be a Pro Systems 1000HP, replacing a 950 Holley. The link at the beginning is to some video a guy took earlier in the year....he still thinks it's a 340.

Scott's engine had a baby camshaft in it, around 248 @ 0.050" if I recall. The torque peak may not be as high as some of the other engines. The dyno sheet I saw on one of these engines had a torque peak at around 6800-7000 with a camshaft that was smaller than usual.

He has a 28 inch tire, he originally thought it would like a 5.13 gear, but didnt,.Went to a 4.56 gear, and car now stripes at close to 8 grand, shifts it about 7800 waas way out of power band with the 5.13's the convertor being redone should pick the car up a good bit, he will have it out to see mighty soon.
