It should. Sending the heads and intake off to Bill Anderson.. I'm sure he will get over 400cfm with them without a problem..
Gonna be running one big kit on it. Need to be in the 4.80-70 range on a prepped track to run with the local grudge cars..
Luckily I have a proven chassis..

Nice build!

I thought I would update this.


The build time was immediately pushed back after the deposit was recieved due to unforeseen Covid delays.

Unforeseen is an understatement! Just infuriating the crazy delays on very ordinary parts. Bearings for Mopar Big Block engines, expected delivery date August, 2023? Really? Pushrods for Pontiacs, oil pan gaskets for regular gen 1 SBC, harmoinic balancer for a For a Cleveland Ford, 6 months., It's just nuts. Looking forward to busting some balls at PRI. I can't imagine having to make a living building engines today. Being a teacher isn't much better. My students are learning some hard lessons of having to make alternative choices.

It's a cluster for sure. Any shop worth a salt knows damn well nothing is going to get done on time. The sin here is promising an appealing date and then delaying that date once the deal is sealed. A lot of unethical shops out there and chances are their product is no better than their business ethics.
