If you have any experience with this combo I'd love to hear more about it. My original thought was it would be inexpensive and durable as it would surely be a low rpm motor and would last much longer then something being spun at high rpms. My fear was making enough stream to be viable.
It is 3415 In G/SA, the exhaust valve and cam lift wont hurt it much. It gets great intake manifolds. The carburetor is the most limiting factor. 10 Second car the right hands. These cars flat out work for big cars. As some may say its no dime rocket but you do get what you pay for in cool factor.
