Who is running small cubes on their race engines?

I have been talking with BR about a 377/8

Just want to know how much power are you guys making and a overall gear/tire setup..

pump gas, race gas, alcohol, anything..

I run a 383 (old style sbc) with nitrous, puts out @ 900 hp, i dont know if it is relavent to what you are asking though, I guess you are asking about lsx engines

I am in the same boat as car_fixer, mine was an old style small block 377, 4.145 bore 3.50 stroke with a 6" rod 13-1 AFR 210 heads and some nitrous and my combo went 9.30's w/ 1.30 60 ft.

I ran a big tire 33x16.5 more for looks than performance with a 4.86 gear with a th400 4500 stall in a 65 nova.

Personally I wish I would have built a bigger motor, closer to the 406-427 range.

If you're going with a boosted combo the smaller cubes work well, but for all motor or a nitrous combo I would build a bigger inch motor.

My car is an NHRA Super Stock car. 327 ci, makes 530 HP at the motor and runs 10.30s. powerglide and 5.83 gears. motor can spin to 9000 RPMs but I shift at 7800 and run through the lights about the same..... I have two of them (identical cars) and a stocker camaro running 11.8 with a..... 327!! lol.

Our old 383 ran 9.30's. 3rd run out with that combo we broke the N/A record with a 9.63. That was a great engine. Now that we are trying to turn such high RPM's we have a little larger engine. 402ci.
