Info may have been excluded for a reason ...up here around Detroit theres a pretty large group of street/Grudge racers ...maybe he dont want to tip his hand ...our local track has a street / grudge once a month and its one of thier most popular events each month ...lots of guys around here are vague about thier cars ..

basics of the build include. 355" LT1, stalled 4L60e, Currie 9", EFI 24x LS1 pcm, it does have some Ai parts on it

Sorry that I cant answer all of you guy's questions, I still figured you would enjoy the video... guess not

compression is modest at just over 11.5 static. about 9.2 dynamic. The heads were milled basically as far as you can mill an LT1 head. the chambers are 50.5cc and I have a stock style shitty 4 valve relief piston.

I basically only had to cut the pistons due to the radial relief for the bigger valves. The lift was not really of a concern, but the stock style piston and extremely milled head was what caused problems
