Jason Pettis freshened up Mikey`s 470 BB wedge and we finally made some pulls saturday so let`s hear your guesses on hp n torque then Mikey can give the rest of the details when time permits. It has Indy 295 EZ`s Max wedge w/no more that a Pettis valve job, 11.3 comp, a custom CompCam w. .485-.478 lobe lift w/Harland-Sharp 1.6 rockers and .279-.289 dur @ .050 on a 108 lsa installed at 104 and my 1150 2-circuit Dommy on 110 Sunoco fuel............

I'm just glad to hear it's finally running!

I'm no engine guru but I would guess at 723/610 assuming heads ran around 357cfm?, but I'm probably way off??.....just a still interested ex old racer from UK.

I'm going to take a wild stab in the dark 769hp

Big horsepower has came out of Pettis's camp

Some closer than others but lets just say it was more than even Jason and I predicted.............I`ll let him chime in when he can w/all of the details. Another, how high do you guys think he took it to..........

OOH!...OOH!..I have an idea Hey Dom, it was good talking to you the other day.

Back at ya man..............

First, Thank you Dom for all your help. I have to say I as well as the gang was pretty impressed with the whole process and Jason's knowledge. We did 5 or 6 pulls each one made considerable gains, First pull was 707 hp and from there made timing and jet changes and ended up at 770.9 hp on the final pull which Jason wanted to keep going but I was happy there for a stock block. my engine wasn't dyno'ed before so calculating on Wallace my car ran a best of 9.98 at 135 with 1.38 60 foot and 3150lb car with me in it comes to 630 hp? so Jason rebuilt what I had only changing Cam, lifters, Springs, pushrods, & springs & ring pack & his Valve Job. I'll try to post any tech sheets or dyno screen shots when I get home from work. Anyway cant wait to put this thing to the test. Thanks Again Dom your carb makes some pretty good numbers!!

damn that is stout, made about 100hp more than i would've guessed.

You don`t know Jason Pettis............THE MAN in both engine building and chassis tuning...........Glad I could help Mike and enjoy that puppy.........

Glad to hear you are finally going to get her back in the car. Hard to go wrong with Jason's knowledge and ability to make good decisions that end up making power. Now get it in the car and lets see what she runs.

That's my plan AL, still have a bunch of little things to do but I can't wait to see how she does. FYI looks like Jason is going to do Kevin's R-3 W-8 combo and plans are to put it in the purple car.
That one should make some steam!

Awesome. Cannot wait for those results either...

Jason and I were discussing what carb would be best for that and decided on a 1150 and would love to do some back-to-back dyno/track test`s and mess w/the 3 and 2 circuit differences AND which one gets the car down the track quicker.............Enjoy Mikey.............

Very impressive! I was low by a whole lot on my guess, and glad I didn't post it!

Pettis is does awesome work. Congrats!

What sort of oil system on it? Turning that much RPM, I'd expect there's no room to cheap out on the parts without paying a penalty for it.

I saw a single external pick up and dragster type pan.............

That's what it is, Milodon.
