All aluminum 477" ( 4.250 bore X 4.200 stroke)
Ported edelbrock heads, sidewinder intake, Holley 950HP carb
10.5 CR, solid roller cam roughly 0.680 lift
Solid rollers don;t like cold temperatures at start up, as valve lash is alot tighter when cold, and run real rough for a couple minutes. However, pulls real strong. A friend of mine has a 482" hydraulic roller, and he thinks mine pulls harder than his even though his flywheel dyno numbers are higher than mine. His starts easier, runs smoother at start up. Mine is like an untamed stallion.
Pick your poison.
Here are my chassis dyno numbers. Currently mine is down, snapped a rocker. The more performance, maybe less durability.
