Quote: Also dynoed the motor. 426 hp and 491 tq. Not shabby for a stockish motor we played with the timing, jetting and different things and this was the best compromise. did see tq get up to 498 and hp did hit 435 at one point. also, the dyno guy wasn't the best at spelling...
VERY nice. was it dynoed with headers or the manifolds?
I sure wish I had been able to dyno my Purestock 440-6 before it went in the car; it's similar but is 10.75:1, Mr. Sixpack cam, internally balanced with custom Ross NHRA legal pistons and a crane roller rocker setup and a few other tweeks. I would guess that mine is in the 430 - 450hp range
What are you planning for exhaust?
Anyhow, GREAT job on the car. Keep the pics coming.
