Hello 385 fans:

I have been running a 429SCJ for three years. It has been modified somewhat. This is the deal:
D0VE-A 4-bolt block
SCJ rods
2YAB 3,85" crank
D0OE SCJ rods
D0OE-R heads
Wiseco flat top pistons for a cr. close to what, 11.0 and 466CID
Crane 214 / 222 535 / 565 SAE8620 Steel Roller cam
Weiand Stealth 8021 SCJ intake
Holley 3310 out of the box
Hooker 1 7/8 primary and 3,5" collectors
MSD pro-billet set at 34° total and 12 initial
MSD Digital 6 box
Crane teflon coated springs, Crane titanium retainers 10°, Crane Gold race rockers and roller lifters to go with the cam.

The engine runs smoothly and starts right up. I am a little disappointed with its get up power and high range.

If I hold the converter and launch it hard, it will burn rubber for a long time, but a dry get up and go is a little sleepy, and the torque just is not availalble until after around 2800 rpm.

Any suggestions?
