  • what size are the rear tires?

  • @matt9632111 Those are Cooper Cobra 275-60r-15's on 15x7 inch Cragars with 4 1/8" backspacing. I now have different wheels and tires. 17x7 and 17x9 American Racing wheels.

  • New video is up with the 385 stroker.

  • To those of you wanting a high RPM clip... I took a video of it before I pulled the mill, but the camera I have wouldn't pick up the sound properly at high RPM. Didn't do the exhaust sound justice. I'd like to assure you all that it does sound nice at high RPM too.

    I'm in the middle of the 11.1:1 385ci stroker build now. Should be good for close to 500hp and about the same ft/lbs of torque. Looking forward to getting her back on the road.

  • That sounds great!! I'm considering putting some 3" welded thrush mufflers on my 64 nova with a 383. It'd be awesome if you posted a video of it at higher rpm or reving up.

  • Thanks! I'll try to get some video of it at higher RPM before I pull out the motor. I'm getting ready to upgrade to a 385 stroker!

  • I have a 74 Nova that I have a 502 in with a Holley 750. Doing a buildup to do some drag racing.

  • Hey man could make another video with you getting on it a lil bit caus ei have a 74 myself but mine will have a well built 383 and i wanna herar what your sounds like if you wouldnt mind bro

  • That sounds great. The idle is similar to mine, although my video doesn't make it appear that way. Very nice, indeed.

    Now I just gotta get my car to go as quick as yours.
