Thats the way we went with our street/strip brkt car, 589ci, only 10:1, small solid roller, 260/270@.050", tiny 950HP carb,(15" vacuum@idle) Indy 440-2, Indy heads, 33 deg total, street 4200 converter, max torque@4400, max rpm/hp 6200@traps, 4.10's with a low first in 727, fill up in the morning on the way with Shell V-power pump, drive to the track on full exhausts, race/drive home, no stress, easy on parts, heavy 3800lb car low 10's.
I really like this conservative combo alot, and put together something pretty close, except mine is 572ci, 10.2:1 and has hemi heads.
