Thanks, guys. That's not gonna do much in a B or E body, huh?
Depends on what your goals are.
From another thread that I bookmarked:
I didn't read all the posts, but your stock rotating assembly will go 11's all day long. My 440 short block is a 1978 casting(including pistons) with an MP .557" solid cam, unported 906's milled to 80cc, M1 intake and a(stock) 750 vacuum. I had a Holley Street Dominator intake and it ran the same ET's as the M1. And I used a dingle ball hone on the block too, lol.
The convertor is a 4,000 stall and I drive it everywhere with 4.10 gears. The car weighs 3,330 with me and runs 11.70's all the time. It's gone 11's on 87 octane too. Not the best combination out there, but it's cheap and it works.
Here's another that I noticed just today on another site:
My two combos. I dont own this car anymore wish I did. 71 Challenger coupe. 440 stock bore forged replacement pistons, DC 284-484 cam, rebuilt 452 heads unported, Holley street Dominator, 750 Holley, 727 rebuilt, Turbo action rev manual vb, 3400 10 in convertor, 3.91 sure grip, 9x28 MT slicks, Hooker 1.78 Headers, This was a low comp engine regular unleaded. Best run 11.98 at 115mph, 12.00-12.20 car. sixty foot 1.66-1.68.
