IMO ya should just call Jeff Kauffman, he will know what cam and stuff works best with his heads ya know, and I dont see any reason ya can't run close to 11:1 on pump gas on a well tuned engine especially with aluminum heads, one thing th KRE heads have a better chamber design than the old E-heads and there are alot of quick cars running the KRE D-ports, 500hp is easily obtainable with those heads, wish ya best of luck.......

Sorry didn't pay attention to dates and just went straight to your original post, glad ya got everything sorted out

What was the verdict on HP and TQ? I am starting with a 71 400 I am looking to get as close to 500 as well.

Thanks,
Dave

The eagle crank is cast. My combo ended up making 468hp 541tq. I am happy with it. She burns the tires as long as I keep it floored. In case I ever want more, I can port the heads and get a bit more out of it but it's a handful now

I ran it at the dragstrip for fun during the Tulsa Pontiac Nationals last week and ran a 12.4@109mph with 245/45/r17 Falken All Season street tires spinning off the line and just easing into it.

Chad, you did a good job of peddling your car to it's best times @ Tulsa. My other traveling buddies and I are sure there's 11 second times to come w/ sticky tires!!!

The 12.51 run you spun just a tad, the 12.59 run, you spun less, but a tad longer.
