I agree, it would bug me every time I looked at the car.
Mods are:
350 w/ 3.75" stroker crank for a total of 383 ci.
Vortec cylinder heads w/ upgrade Lunati valvles springs.
CR of 10.39:1 / DCR of 8.69 - I may need to run 98 octane. We have 93 here at the pump.
Isky cam .450/.450 lift, 278/278 duration, 234/234 @ .050, 106 LSA, installed 4º advanced
high rise RPM intake
750 carb
headman shorty headers
2.25" dual exhaust to 40 series FlowMaster Mufflers
I had a desktop dyno ran with head flow factored by 95% (5% less than the factory published numbers). Normally they've been 5-10% accurate with the software used. Figures are...
438 hp @5500, 410 ft/lbs @2000 and 469 ft/lbs @4000.
She's a real torque monster. One of these days I'll get it to the track and see how it does in the 1/4 mile. My gearing isn't the best for 1/4 though cause I have 3.08 gears. I could use 3.73 or 4.10 for best 1/4 mile time, but I don't want the drivability to suffer for .5 seconds at the track.
