Not that heads wouldn't improve your combo... but all done at 5K? Think there's more holding it back then the 906's MSD6AL with MSD distributor and coil, sorry bu don't remember curve or how the cam was degreed. Easy to check ignition curve (think total timing is around 38 degrees and that it reaches that at 2500 rpm) but a little more work to check cam timing. If I rember correctly it is set at zero. Well, maybe I wasn't clear enough. I can rev it beyond 6k but you get the feeling that it isn't very happy after 5k. Like it gets out of breath. I'm using a fresh 3 inch K&N filter with filter top, Hooker Super Comp headers coupled to 3" exhaust with Flowmaster 42's, no pipes after the mufflers. 70 W100 Power Wagon. 318 4-spd 70 Sport Fury 440 2dr HT 71 Duster 340 71 Charger Super Bee - 383/727 72 Charger "Sabotage" - 440/727 - Street/Strip 78 Warlock in beautiful patina

The switch to Edelbrocks from my 452's dropped me from 12.5x's @ 105 to 12.0's @ 110, no other changes. More converter got me another 0.15 and 2 mph, intake swap got me another 1.5mph but nothing as far as ET...

They cost less and has original casting meaning that headers and plug area is roomier 70 W100 Power Wagon. 318 4-spd 70 Sport Fury 440 2dr HT 71 Duster 340 71 Charger Super Bee - 383/727 72 Charger "Sabotage" - 440/727 - Street/Strip 78 Warlock in beautiful patina

They cost less and has original casting meaning that headers and plug area is roomier What size are you Hooker super comps? If they they are 1 7/8" they will not fit the angle plug heads. If they are 2" they will fit better but still close. In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

I guess you are talking about Eddies, if I get 440 Source everything would be as original? 70 W100 Power Wagon. 318 4-spd 70 Sport Fury 440 2dr HT 71 Duster 340 71 Charger Super Bee - 383/727 72 Charger "Sabotage" - 440/727 - Street/Strip 78 Warlock in beautiful patina
