Could be a whole lot worse - how boring would it be if all GM cars had the same engine combos like MoPar or FoMoCo... we’d all be getting excited about (1) of (1) purple cars with paisley vinyl tops...

I was thinking of that one too.
IIRC it was Bill Ceralli, 455 or maybe 433?, made 530 peak hp. Good numbers for 30yrs ago with nothing exotic. Don’t remember much else..

Jim Butler recommended SFT lobes for me from the XTQ series - also with the lifters with the pee-hole. I haven’t seen/heard these discussed on these boards - might be worth looking into? FWIW

My Ma had a ‘72 350/350 Firebird in the 80’s. IIRC #12 heads, 068 cam, 2.56 rear.

����*♂️D’oh! 6oz is still a heap though. A BFG All Terrain will take that much and they’re notoriously hard to balance.

That is waaay too much weight. Either the tires have been stored/stacked incorrectly or the wheels may be buckled/kinked. I’d check dynamic balance to see how true the wheels run. Turning the tire on...

The plan was to build a 10-1 CR SD 455 in 1970, but did not work out. Chevy the cause ?
Its one of the reasons I hate...

I think that 390hp 428 may have been a little overrated, or the 360hp GTO 455 engine was underrated. [/QUOTE]

Hard to see in the video; do both tires lift/land evenly? Bump steer is more likely when one tire hits a bump or if one tire lands before the other. Fairly easy to compensate for bump steer by...
