Short idle/rev clip of my SBC 302

All forged internals, 12.5:1 compression, 462 heads with a comp cam 280h cam, holley 600cfm carb, which is too small, you can hear how its running too lean

sorry about the bad vid, i took it with a cheap camera,and the car was too loud for the mic

how high can you rev it?

[slvr98camaro]

i have seen videos of people reving their 302's out to 8500+

the highest i ever went was 6000, i didnt know what internals were in the engine at the time, and didnt want to break anything, plus the HEI doesnt go much higher than that, once i rebuild it, i will take another vid and give it some rpms

great vid now you just need that 780 holley or a crossram to make her really scream.

Very cool 302! How'bout the hp and tq?

[slvr98camaro]

thanks a lot! not really sure how much power it has, im estimating around 400hp if it had a good tune. The engine dyno program estimates it at around 428hp @ 6000rpm and 423ftlb @ 4500 rpm with a 750cfm carb

A 600 CFM carb is not too small, big carbs take away power off the line, check out my video, my 415 has about 675hp and I have a 4bbl 390cfm carb on it
