That is such a sweet conversion. Sounds like you're still chasing the tune a little with that good sized cam???

BTW: What was the original power in the car? that has to turn a few heads when you crank it up in the pits.

Average power is where it's at. I can lug the 427 down to 600RPM in 6th gear and pull away cleanly. Useful with the traffic we have around here.
