Silver, last friday I put M/T drag radials on it. Also, 522 is the peak torque and it went steadedly down from there, unless you have a download problem, I can read the whole sheet.

Looks like a nicely optioned '69 firebird. Is it a warwick blue car?

This thread is way above me as I have been told that a +0.060 overbore is too much. How much are you guys overboring and what is 'special' about the blocks etc that you're using? I am finding this incredibly interesting after the problems I've encountered.

They're using the IAII blocks. Check out All Pontiac.com.

Bill Bolin, I figured I need to step it up before going to the outlaw Pontiac race. Its still has no roll bar in it but in a couple of months I'll solve that and pass tech. Are you racing? Hey does Tony let B-Boy drive the Goat?

60Man, are you loosing the head gaskets at 3-5 and 2-4 cylinders? The last time I saw the Dirty Bird heads, Dave install a copper insert in those areas I guess that is what you are doing also. Is the 541 more street oriented?

SE 428, Because of the options, that is the reason I have not really done too many racing type modifications, but its getting a rollbar soon and if its really nice to be, I'm also mini-tubbing it.

Question

Se428, Light Stellar metallic blue, I think its an old Hyundai color. (See, I'll do anything to increase the performance of my car).

This caught my eye. It does look like an identical color to my Tempest (an '04 Hyundai Santa Fe color ). It does make it faster, though.

Jim, I guess the "cat's out the bag" on our performance secret coatings. Pontiac tough with Hyundai stuff.

Yep.....loosing seal between two center cylinders....75-80 passes. doing the same insert I assume.... 541 is going to be another race motor...little more CR, & bigger cam with 4-7 swap. The GP is not a street car..a back half car with tin work..
The old 60 will be my street ride...

FWIW: the 505 made 719 pdft torque..!!

Using a Gutsram with dual Holley 4150's/850's with race fuel.
Ironic thing is we were trying to lower TQ as I was having trouble hooking up
with 60 Ventura. Go for HP...... will say it moved that 4,100 # sled decent.
