what stock eliminator class?

[Steve Stasko]

Out of curiosity, is the car a Hardtop or a Sedan? My Grandfather had a brand new '65 383/330 Sedan. It ran C/SA then!

I agree with Mark also, if you think the 516's and the carb are detrimental to the combo, you need to rethink your plans. Plan on spending most of your money on the heads. It's not going to be a "dime rocket" for sure, but it also shouldn't break the bank to build it and be somewhat competitive.

I would think the bowls in the Edelbrock exhaust ports would need welded up and smaller seats put in for the 1.60" exhaust valves. I guess since they allowed "any valve job", welding the area under the seat is OK and then remachined? Or do you have to leave a big step under the seat since welding isn't legal on a Stocker head? Is the NHRA legal head coming with valve seats installed? I think they were, not sure if they still are.

I'm just not slippery enough to know how to figure out how to get a set of 906 heads, a late model intake & a Holley past tech. LOL! (Bet it would run then) Thanks again. Bob

The 915 head is legal and the ports are basically identical to the 906, the biggest issues are the small carb,566CFM on my bench and the lack of V to P clearance, that said it's a great combo at that HP Factor.

You are close to a really good stock eliminator engine builder in Dayton. Parsons and Myers have a history of fast mopars and other makes as well.
