A big thanks to DRAM & RyanJ

Just wanted to say thanks to both of those guys DRAM (pistons and rings) and RyanJ for the 360-1 cnc RP's (heads). Both helped me out and were great to deal with, and spent the time needed to make sure I got what I needed the first time. I got the motor running now and Dynoe'd this past Sat. It's only 410" and made 573 to the tires on a dyno jet without even touching the carb so I know there is more to be had. Not bad for a fairly little motor by todays standard. The heads were worth 43 rwhp over my extensively hand ported 360-1's. I would recommend both of those guys to anyone who needs any parts or advise.

Good to hear!

I agree both are stand up guys.

Glad to see it picked up as much as it did, as I know your "hand ported" -1's were not your basic run of mill port job. Glad that the effort was worth the reward.

Thanks Ryan, Im glad I went the route I did. I put the cam in @ 104.5 (5.5 degrees advanced) and it moved my power band down to a managable 7400 rpm shift point (Peak power was @ 7200). It was the most power put down on their dyno by a 410" or smaller motor that was N/A so far. The only ones that made any more were 434" or larger with exotic heads. None made any more power per cube than mine did and Im running a shelf cam from Comp. They were impressed to say the least and I was very happy
