Yea I agree those big blocks need the naz to run a number




Maybe if you build it, it would need a power adder, or a big block chevy! From what I understand, you got a 400 plus cu in, w-9 motor going on av 10.0's in an abody at a sea-level track.
And as bdazz smblk(aka; my Brother) says. You might wanna get out more often yo some diff tracks. And btw, that motor isn't anything special at all!!!!




I guess you missed the fact that I slow it down to go 10.0 index racing. Yes it is a 422 with w9 rp and has run 9.55 at 143 NA so there is a little left in her yet.

Mr.Yuck if you are talking about Bill's blue demon it is a 499 with a 670 lift roller.He bought the motor out of my brothers full interior 30x10 tire 69 dart with mufflers and went 9.30's at 146.And 1967dart gt if you never see a street car with a big block run good you need to get out to different tracks more often.Not saying they are everywhere but there are some good running ones out there floating around.




Yes they are out there but very few just like small blocks. Its mopars in general not a lot of them. Next time I get down your way I will let you play with my nitrous machine, your brother to with his big block.

He says it ran 146 mph last year in the quarter.It was a 499 10 to 1 compression 700+ lift but less then 800 with the indy sr non max wedge in a 3300 lb dart. I think he was streching the truth some what do you guys think. Isn't that like 750hp to run that fast ib that car? From some of the post about big block it doesn't seem like thats what you guy get out of them.


In the mid 90s we had a 440-1 on a 499ci with about 12-1 static and net intake lift of .687 IIRC. A 3280# 69' Barracuda on SS springs and footbrake w/9" J converter went 145.80 in average ATCO air (maybe 1500ft).

Drove that car on the street as much, or more than any low 9sec N/A car in the country for 4 years, I'll bet.

Hey Mr yuck you need good heads on a big block to go this fast and everyone in this post has had 440-1 heads. Last time I checked it was a good amount of money for a good set, cnc and rockers intake etc.. It ain't cheap going this fast weather its a big block or small block. I have a lot less in my motor then you think.

Thats a good running street car, now with less head, less compresion and same weight do you think you could go faster? Thats what I was running late 90s and early 2000s with pump gas and a small block on spray. It was only 385 cuin with edelbrock rpm heads. Wish I never took that motor apart had a lot of fun with it driving all over the place.

that's why I hit the "bargin bun" here on moparts when I break something. FWIW I think this stock stroke 440 w/ a larger solid roller, maybe more gear would run low 10's easy in an A-body.

nothing a stroker kit, bigger stall and better intake/carb can't fix. low 10's are w/ the ported stage VI heads and factory 6 pack. But hey I'm happy w/ the way it runs. I drive it to the track and home (barring breakage) Should be close to 11.0's come spring.

yeah the cage should already be in, that's why I'm good now. I just want to make a few fast passes then sit on an 11.51 dial. My next car will be fast. BTW what do W9's run? like $1100 bare?

no. i believe the SR's are better but have a raised exhaust port and i was afraid it would cause problems with the headers in my challenger that seemed to wrap around every steering piece in the car

I though the SRs where the base head. I though all the 440-1 heads flow better. Isn't a ez just a 440-1 with standard exhaust ports?

if you get the big EZ heads that take the offset rockers they would be more like the -1s with the stock exhaust port. but i think the price goes way up like the -1 heads.

i have read here some guys have very stout SR heads. obviously if the head is a standard port head then it will not have enough volume for a bigger motor.
