It is in my 86 Iroc now. From what I can gather those are peanut port heads and likely a stock cam in it.
I did a gtech run with it and it ran a 13.46@105 with an easy launch. Thing is it falls on its face at around 5000rpm so I am all in about half track.
What are the good casting numbers for iron heads?
I suspect a better cam in the .550 lift area combined with better heads would wake it up a bit even with the stock pistons.
I don't want to put much money into it till I can afford to do it up as a forged 496 with good aluminum heads and a solid roller.
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
