Glad to see you are giving it a run. You have a build that on paper sounds similar but better than mine.

Cam: your 60916 is just a couple more degrees more than my 10510702 Voodoo cam, same LSA. The lift is slightly less than mine, but very close.

Heads: your KRE d ports undoubtedly flow better than my 2.11/177 mildly ported #12 iron heads.

I run FiTech for fuel system. It's likely not faster than a Holley, but might be easier to tune.

What is your ignition setup and timing curve?

My best et was 14.04 with awful air and embarrassing 60 foot times. I think mph was something in the 100 ballpark. This was during my last track trip years ago, where I had just got into data logging my runs and adjusting afr settings for best et/mph. I have no problem admitting I suck as a driver. But I have no doubt I could've had 13's.

The rest of the package was th350, 2000 stall converter (more stall would've helped), and 3.73 in a 1st gen. Stall and gears with a cammed up 350 really helps. The power band really comes in above 2000 rpm.


As a point of reference, I broke out of the 15's with a 69 350, stock 47 heads, Summit 2800 cam, same trans/2k converter, and 3.23 gears. I can't remember if I was running a qjet or Holley then.

The point of telling you what I ran is not to peacock on my setup, but that I think you are selling yourself short, or something is off in your tune. I am really not that good at this compared to many people.

Dare to be different! Btw, welcome, congrats on post #1.
