May not be as "Street" friendly that way though,but no pain no gain,right???

Any other changes?

Was this with the RPM/carter carb you had on it last?

And which tires?

I think for a deal like this,the tomahawk or torker II would be best intake,port matched to the heads,with a nicely worked holley 750-800 DP,and at least a 1" spacer (I would try 1" open & 4 hole,and if room permited,try both in 2" too).

Get it into the very low 12's to high 11's on the motor,then spray the snot out of it to get the most out of it possible,maybe even into the 10's,that's the plan for mine.

I do agree the shorter tire or gear would help. My rpm it was around 5400 in the traps so there is a little left. I did not change anything else so I may go back to the Torker I as a test because that’s what it was dyno'ed with. I have no plans to spray this motor. I plan on working on the suspension and the driver mostly.
