chuck,i dont think it would matter.neither one of us would do anything more than sit and spin on those tires.anyway,when things hook-things break.tires are cheap!besides,if i was going to build it to race,i would have used my sd block.

Rejects? Seriously? Wow!
To me these are Pontiac's ZL1 - and even more rare since only a handful survived.

Greg,I just drive mine,it virtually nevers sees anything over 3000.After lots of diff applications and diff cams I settled on 236-242 as anything more was crap to drive with 3.55 gears and also the power brakes were a issue with the 252-260 cam I had in it at one time.As I said,I drive it for long stretches.Its just another friggin motor in my book.Tom
