My best friend, bless his heart.... bought this 355 from a local race shop. He tells everyone its a "race motor" and has almost 500HP. He also thinks its running 13:1 compression ... and he's running 93 octane. He's never put it in the 1/4 mile nor dynoed it, but if you listen to him take off down the road you can tell it has nowhere near that power.
