Bill, are you running gas or alcohol now? If gas the switch to alcohol might pick it up for you. It would sure make it more consistent all season long.

well, I need to freshen up the 408 this winter, so I may see what I need to do to give it a little more and then run it another season, but I am still concidering going to a BB before I stop racing,,,,if I ever do , I just want to build a solid combo that will run all day and never lift the hood between round's, I think a mild big block with the right combo of parts will get me where I want to be and not have to run the dog dodo out of it to run the numbers I want .

Bill, remember my 30 over 440 in the 64 car? 4.15 stroke, Indy EZ heads with MW port but not cnc ported all the way and a mild 670 roller took my 3100lb B-Body to 9.80 and could have done more but I slowed it down trying to stay at 10.0. Hardly ever opened the hood but I did lose the hood at the top end a couple times I think with what you want your thinking of a mild BB is on target

That's exactly what I want,,,,,with the exception of loosing the hood part.
