With the numbers you got I am sure you will be happy.
I think I used a PAC 1916 @1.885 with a titanium retainer on my build with Hughes 1.6 rockers.
From 6800-7400 if I remember correct it only dropped 20 some HP. I was impressed.


Haven't weighed my car yet. But I found out my 446 weighs 530 lol. My mom joked on the phone she has a 600 pound grand son and Ron the dyno operator had no idea she was talking about the motor then said he was curious to weigh it. People around here said my car could be anywhere from 3400 to 3700. Right now it's a all iron 383 even intake. And 15x8" steel cop wheels from the late 70's, flimsy lift off MAS brand glass 6-pack hood. I want a centerline auto drag type wheel and I am gonna build a aftermarket 9 inch ford rear from quick performance and need to upgrade to disc brakes. My friend and I built trans at least a few years ago, so that should live. Probably gonna call ATI or something for a converter soon.
