Andrew

Your asking the wrong guy, I dropped out of school and joined the Marines in 1964, so I don't have much of a thought process to fall back on.

You on the other hand will probably be graduating Summa Cum Laude from Old Notre Dame and with out a doubt have more of a handle on how to figure out your own question.

LOL

Ain't my fight but didn't some 62 Corvette get 75 off a few years ago, not even to mention the miraculously "raised-from-the-dead" 383 Mopars and 390 Fords

Jeff no respect indeed!! Whats an old guy gonna do?? I think we ought to raise the "Bullying" defense against these young guys!!

Randall shame on you, the 383's and the 390's were dogs from the time they were built, but "Raised from the Dead" is a little strong!! Can we get a little help.

Andrew I was bragging on you and you let me down, tst... tst..... The 390 320/327 with all the gifts still is rated more than your "gifted" 350/360/325hp. LOL

Jeff need to talk to you about getting me a job selling cars?? I think I still have the touch.

I would need the "3 D's". A draw, a driver and the day off.

You're forgetting the 1971 Boss 351 at 355.

Looking at the specs on your motor, makes mine look like the truck motor it is derived froml 11 to one, same roller rockers I got, same cam, choice of 8 heads, some new manifold that nobody knows about, big carb (whichcfm for cfm will make more power-according to the manifold makers) and 325, all the 350's in 70 and 71 are suspect. If I had that I could run 9.70s and RJ could run 9.60's cause he is a better tuner. I guess you guys are in your right mind. I had a 35 Hudson Teraplane fastback with a V12 Hemi that got 10 off, and Sammy P. has gotten about 200 off that 427 thing he runs. RJ, nobody likes us old guys. I'm gonna complain to the AARP.
Jeff, unless I miss my guess, I'm pretty sure the 1000 cfm EFI throttle body does not have a big booster venturi hanging out in the middle of each of those 750 cfm Holley sized throttle bores. I'm pretty sure those are a considerable restriction.

It also flows only air, no fuel
