new super street engine

gnicholson · 10-05-2018, 02:46 PM

the car is 3150 with me. it also sets a bit high and has the aerodynamics of a similar sized brick. i plan on lowering the front a bit this winter. wanted to let the new springs take a set before cutting them. I thought it would be faster than it is to but I'm sure it's the car and not the engine. It has a 488 rear right now and is going through the traps at about 7400 RPM. I've tried a couple of different converters. Right now I have a very consistent car in the 60 and im extremely happy with how the car drives. i can fab another set of headers if i need to just trying to keep it simple. i definitively agree with staying on the small side with pri tubes.
i talked to you this last weekend in great bend tony. i have the dark red 70 chevelle. thats an awesome nova you have.
