Be careful with those srps, mine let go on my 383 le2 on 200 jets. Made 8 passes or so b4 2 of them died on me, 11.3 AFR, pulling 8 degrees of timing also.

I have two sets of melted SRP's from previous motors a few years back. They will not hold up to a 200 shot very long.
I learned the hard way.
If I were you I would hit it with 175 shot and leave it alone. Anything over a 200 shot and you need to get better pistons....ie .....JE, Ross, Wiseco.
Engine looks good btw!

Well on motor 11.76 @ 116-117, 100 shot 11.1 @ 128, 150 10.89 @ 133 running out of gear (3.73 and 26" tire) and on 200s it went 10.57 @ 133, again out of gear. Only ran on the 150 twice, went right to the 200.

I see you decided to keep the valve covers. Without looking at all the numbers, I think your stall will be a perfect... ... ...medium, (I guess thats the word I am looking for) for your combo.

lol, dont let the guys get you down. but i'd take it from tony, he know's his stuff. But give SRP a call and double check, maybe they realized the issue and have fixed it throug manufacturing methods?
