I'll run it thru the program just for sh!ts. A guy over on another forum is running 10 O's with these heads. A 505 13:1 super vic, solid roller 310/318 274/282 421/421 on a 110 with valve events Intake 27,67 Exhaust 71,31. Figures its making 700+. Not sure how hard on parts that cam would be. So far, Dwayne's cam has made best power on my programs than any thing I have tried. Of the intakes he has tried, the super vic is the fastest on his combo and he had an Indy as well.

The reset costs $125 and some busted knuckles. So its gonna be a slow winter project. I would really like to try that 8" 5800.

What's typical for DA, temp, barometric pressure, humidity, etc. for the conditions you've tested in? I don't know how comparable they are to what I've run in the past, or whether it makes my results too much apples-to-oranges.

I don't use a weather station, so not sure. Fisrt time out humidity was 45% and last pass temp was 58-60* and altitude there was 800ft I believe. I had real good air that time out. Last time out humidity was 65% air temp was low 70's and alti at milan is closer to 500ft. Best I can do.

I spoke with hughes engines and edelbrock today. Hughes thinks I need more compression with my combo. Suggest shaving the heads a bit and possible a new cam to get cranking compression to near 200 psi. Edelbrock says the deck of these heads are .650" thick. Can take plenty off and still be safe. Gonna get the vert taken care of first and check spring pressures.

A true 700 hp should put a modestly light A body into mid, high nines, my old 440 was around 600 and ran 10.1 at 132 with RPM's.

That's a good chassis in that combo. I don't think my chassis is good enough for 9.50's, but I thought 10 O's were possible if I had the power behind it.

Funny you say that, because when I built this engine I gaped the rings for spray just incase. Don't think I would ever use it thou. Its not the way I roll. To me its cheating. I'm N/A all the way. Ya know, it just makes for a more interesting hobby.
