Cam too much duration for cubes and not enough gear...a 470 cube big block with a 287 @ .050 cam, you better have good heads and spin it to 7500 plus.. I think the 119 was a typo....
Why? We used to run 452 inches with unported heads and the old .750 roller and didn't have to spin them 7500 to make power. But I doubt the motor is the issue with this car.
If and I repeat IF the 119 is not a typo, at 2550 pounds, this thing makes 650ish on HP, which is not tough for an alum headed 470 if it has decent parts. That said, you should be able to kick it off the line and make it 60ft harder than it is, even with 4.10s and a 1.76 glide. I think the converter is way out in left field
