I just stroked my 454 to a 496. Got a mild comp roller cam .5 lift and 228/232 duration at .5. Got a 2400 stall and 355 gears. Air gap intake manifold and dart pro 1 oval port heads. Ran it for the first time this weekend and ran a 12.2. Pretty sure I could break into the 11's though. Just curious how big the shot and cam was to get you to the low 11's.
@gnewma1 The engine had a solid flat tapper cam- Comp XS274S 236/242 @ .050 on a 110 LSA, RPM Air Gap, OEM 781 iron heads, 10" TCI 3500, 3.31 gears and is 3800 lbs with my wife-(its her car) Shes runs 11.5's on motor alone-
The plate is just a Powershot=125 hp to go the 11.07 @ 120
@gnewma1 3.31 gears my ass! I had a 1970 Chevelle LS-6 new and it had a rock crusher m22 and lousy 3.31 gears, it was still in third gear at about 90 in the quarter stock. BB will not run with stock exhaust and high gears.
TAKE THAT RICER!!!!
