Default RE: Engine Build Up

Nice combo and from an old school guy... interesting choice. Your combination works real well. I'm a product of the 70s and with us bigger was always better But as I have been seeing a better approch such as yours with the matching of parts and R&D yeilds great results. I use the 2.02 valves and 1.60 exhaust. You are getting great results from the 1.88s. Lower compression and using lower octane. Your times are really good. I keep adding things to my combination so I'm not sure what it will be as an end result. I hope it won't fall on its face I'm now looking at steel 1.6 roller tip rockers. I love A bodies and can't wait to see your results from the Demon in the 1/4 and I swear I won't tell anyone your running a 360... just between you and me Did you see Hot Rod Mags crate motor coverage on the Chrysler LA 440 small block? 540HP nice and better was the torque. I would say if asked... yeah its a 318
