Re: 1955 Chevrolet Q/SA Build
This is a tough combination to make HP.
It has flat top pistons with no valve relief. Limits the cam duration a good bit. Be awesome to see it get in the 12’s. D |

Re: 1955 Chevrolet Q/SA Build
Frank, the headers are a set of 1971 vintage adjustable 1 5/8s(list for over $200.back then) Hookers.Was told by another 265 Stock racer that the smaller tube headers were worth something on the dyno.Going back to the track this week to try to get some carbs sorted out.Love testing in this cool fall weather.Takes less time to cool down,and it is fast most of the time unless the wind is in your face.
