FYI, through the end of the 2007 season when I retired my 468, there wasn't one 468 with 049/781 heads installed in a similar weight Chevelle, competing in Division 1 brackets that could run on par with my ride no mind quicker.

Matter of fact, my Chevelle ran quicker than EVERY n/a 454, 496, 502, GM's 720HP 572 and most 540's regardless of which head they ran, in a similar Chevelle here in Division 1 brackets, just saying.

BTW, the devil is in the details and the performance that HP Hunter speaks of also comes by way of a $6,000 Coan XLT 350 trans backing up that 496.

Just saying.
The trans cost 3000.00, just saying. I think my 10.5 comp 454 with a .560 lift flattappet and 049s @ 3720 would have run right with your 68 in the same conditions. BTW Johns red bull should run 9.3s when he gets it dialed. Just got off the dyno with Bob West's engine, can you say 1.2 60s in his 29.00 baro?
