Thats a great point Tech, I would rather have a motor that makes my car perform well and strong than to have that dragster sound. I am going to have to research this more, I am looking for 400 to 450 hp to put in my heavy '48 chevy. This is because I like the feeling of the hp when I'm cruizing, knowing the response is there if I want it.
76GMC, that sounds like an interesting combonation, how many hp do you think you would rate your engine?
So......Instead lets say I have some high compression pistons I have been aching to use (10:1) that are .30 overs.
I have a 400 sbc with 194 heads, can I reach the hp goal I have with a 1000-4500 rpm cam?
Stock the engine comes out with 250hp.Last edited by brickman; 04-06-2004 at 08:27 PM.

It would be nice if this up and down crap would cease.
