Actually, you're right. Visibility sucks due to the tiny little quarter window that gets worse when replaced with those louvers. I find the new Camaros to be even worse though.

That's what I was thinking too.

RJ;
You are truly a funny guy! Elementary Physics? Heavy charge? Orgasmic? Funny stuff Maynard! The term "butt monkey" comes to mind but a little humor is needed on C/R; Keep up the good work.

True Story. Trust me. When we took our Top Stock motor in 09 (which was the basis for the 360 DP motor), we sent the manifold to Wilson, had injector holes put in the thing, put a Fast system on it, 1000 cfm TB, made 10 less. Just to be sure, we put the carb back on the thing, and it made 10 more. Wilson said that is the case because the fuel starts atomizing higher up. The low and behold when NASCAR got EFI, the injectors are in the top of the manifold instead of near the head. Who knew? RJ, you could be the manager of my tote-the-note lot. You are qualified. Now about that 780. We had a 750 double pumper on the TS car.

I’m not sure what RJ is talking about. We aren’t releasing anything.

We are working on a new 429 for the 2014 model that has different heads but they would not be backwards compatible.

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

Still 5 more than that 390 with all the aftermarket parts. It's also the second highest rated carbureted small block in the guide (behind the same motor in the Corvette, 5 hp more).

You're forgetting the 1971 Boss 351 at 355.

I know one thing about this whole discussion and that's the Boss is definitely over rated.
