The same combination in Jim Hale's 383 F/SA 67 Barracuda runs 1.00 under anytime he wants to. Weight break for my car is 12.74, making it a natural J car. Key for my 66 car is the "915" 1.60 exhaust valve heads that are now legal for '66 cars. The "516" heads are not as good for stock, which is what the '66 cars were limited to in the past, not so now. My 4131 carburetor was built by Dean Oliver to Stock Eliminator rules, he did an incredible job, plenty of fuel. A stock rebuild of that carb will not cut it, you're right. We did eight or ten pulls on the dyno, and had good numbers. Overall, I think it's a great combination. I'd be interested to hear what you tried with your car, thanks.

when I looked at it, we had to use the older heads. I know dean quite well, he does great work on all carbs. I am trying to find someone here in California to store my F/SA Duster
Ah...so many pedestrians, so little time...

A friend of mine in has an original '66 sedan hemi car ex- super stocker. He rolled it over the Certified scale for me and it weighed 37and change.
As he called it " A bit chubby "
So the bartender says to the horse " Gee, Why the long face?"
