The machine shop that built the motor said they designed it to be 1hp/ci and be a great torquey street motor to work with my set up (stock vert, 3.55s) I believe they achieved that.

However, I wanted something more radical and said how about a stroker? They said you don't need that, don't want to do that to your numbers motor and you should be happy with a torquey 440.

I should be happy but I'd like another 100hp plus at least the torque I already have. It sounds like I'd have to go to heroic efforts to do that though (512ci, convert and 3.91's). I want it to pull HARD. Right now it just pulls quite good.

The idea of the six pack has been on my mind. That, a cam, vert and 3.91s should make the car snapier
