[sevangharib1984]

Nice job Bro.

[MEADOWSracing78]

what size wheels are on the back?

[nebdrummer]

badass man. sounds real good. do you crusie this at all?  mileage? whats it pull for vacuum do ya know?

ive been debating on stepping up to a 200+cc head and a bigger cam, but i dont know how my drivability will work out. i cruise the crap outta mine, but i just wanna go a little faster. 12.80's-90's with 4000 lbs..

[glamisfanatic]

What kind of numbers are you putting down? I am building a 383 stroker for my 84 Z28, Ive got a forged scat crank, forged 6 inch scat rods, crane cam roller rockers, looking @ forged wiseco or probe pistons, custom grind LSM roller cam, either going with Dart or AFR heads, demon 750 carb. I am hoping to reach the 500hp mark. Its going to be a fun build :)

[256dallas]

very low idle nice cam pop

[nerazzurri1985]

the engine sounds to be supercharged... is it??

[matthewt2010]

I love the sound of the 406. Nice car man.

[BeboAltizer]

[EddieJr93]

are you special needs

[EddieJr93]

what do you mean would a chevelle handle a 406.they can handle big blocks and everythng.why not a 406

[EddieJr93]

oh.well built properly absolutely

[BeboAltizer]

thanks

[glamisfanatic]

what kind of question is that. seriously

[BeboAltizer]

idk, it didn't make sense to me either when i re-read it.  lol hard to tell what the hell i was trying to ask.

[Rich1028]

nice!!

but more pics of the engine.

[86k20]

hey i have a 87 camaro with a swapped 350, and im sort of in compition with my buddy who has a later 70's mailbu which he built a 406 for and so hed eat my camaro right now but im planning on building a better motor and i was wondering if you think a 383 stroker could beat a 406 and i know theirs alot of variables but in general wut do u think is better

[50chevyguy]

383, would keep up at best.

But really, it all depends on how it's geared.

rear end, transmission etc.

OH....and weight!

But in terms of engines......I'd snag a 400SB!

Torques up like a big block, and launches like a rocket!

[86k20]

well i was planning on putting either a 4 speed or 5 speed in it, i want a 4 speed because i like more old school kind of stuff. Im also wanting to swap the 10 bolt out for a 12 bolt with posi. And gearing i havnt even thought to much about that yet because its about the last thing im worried about since im doing the motor now and the int/ext. 400's are sweet to but i already got a 350 in it so just going with that. And like they say 383 stroker weight of a small block power of a big block

[50chevyguy]

Nice. I'd go with the 5. I'm trying to get my hands on one, if not, I'll go with a 4.

All I have is the 3.

I have a 12 bolt from a '69 Camaro in my '50. Never had problems with it.

That's understandable. One piece at a time. :)

A 350 is still pretty bad ass. I like them because of versatility, and availability of parts.

I used a 400 once. Now I'm putting one in my '50 chevy.

Good luck on your car!

[dragongoff]

Excellent roar! Sounds like a great combination of components.

[humantestdummy]

what bore x stroke do you get 406cubic inch?

[Hemihart]

4.155in x 3.75in

[metalworks73]

nice setup man

Hey you runin on pump gas? 91? 93? 11:1 with iron heads and 246* cam sounds like a risk of detonation. What elevation you at?

I have a similar setup going into a nova, 406 with scat rotating assembly with 6 inchers and forged flattops, Ill be using dart iron eagle platinums 215cc and 72cc chambers. CR should be around 10.3:1 Cam is comp XE284H (240/246*@50). But Im at 4600ft. makes me wonder if I should have gotten 64cc chambers

no knockin on your setup?

[bowtie1978]

I have no Idea what the elevation around here (Western Kentucky) is. I do run the car on 93 at about 34 to 36 degrees total, seems to work fine. Your 10 to 1 will work fine, better to be on the safe side with pump gas.

[levisnteeshirt]

the cam is gonna bleed off some of the compression ,, ,, but it doesn't sound like a cam with 272 @ .050 to me ,, with only 505 lift , solid roller ?? i had a 64 chevy II that ran 7.20's with a 355, 252/260 @.050/ 108/ 606 lift with ported 462 heads , flat tops , pump gas ,650 double pumper on a team G intake , 4000 stall /powerglide/5.57 gear /29.5x11.5 slicks , i never did get it completly sorted through ,,

[nohaypamas]

i got the cam,a rpm air-gap intake,holley 750cfm doble pump, msd 7al-2 ign. box, 1.6 roller rockers, and im about to order a set of trick flow heads 195 cc runers 64 cc chambers, .600 max lift,do you have any suggestions on the heads? or you think thats a goo choice?

[bowtie1978]

What size engine? If it's a 350 those heads will work great, a 400 or 406 likes intake runners in the 200+ range. Sounds like a good combo, stay with a cam with duration in the 240 to 260 @ .050 range and about .550 lift. Should be close to that with your 1.6 rockers.

[nohaypamas]

fuck yeah!! you should check out my videos! im desperete to shear how my truck is going to sound like with that cam! what heads u got in your car?

[bowtie1978]

My engine combination is listed here under the ABOUT THIS VIDEO heading. Your truck looks nice, I had a v8 s10 myself, it went 11.80's with a 355 small block.

[nohaypamas]

thats the very same cam im putting on my s-10!! i think is the best choise for a street car!!

[bowtie1978]

Yea it's a good street strip cam. Has really good street manners but is a little small for my 406 combo. Still it runs and pull great, sounds good too.
