    does everyone else agree with rumrumm about the edlebrock heads i got? No offence man but i just cant believe it...a friends of mine has the same heads on his motor and it is not a far strech off what i got going on in side and hes got 512hp at the crank.

    They don't flow well enough out of the box to make that kind of hp. Has he had porting work done on them?

    Try a lighter piston and pin combination.... I like the Probe's and sometimes even aluminum rods on small inch engines... Not sure how good a Probe works in a chebbie, sure have had good luck with them in Windsor's though!!!!!

    To make over 500 hp out of a 350 you would need a very good hyd. roller cam or a small street mech. and a set of 195 cc CNC'D AFR heads.
