Hell yeah! I'll be racing at Cecil, Maple Grove, and Atco this summer. Maple Grove is home base for me.

AS soon as Cecil is done their repaving in April, I'll be there to shake her down...I can't wait!

Yes, that's Joe. I'm in the car.

The 600HP is a shot-in-the-dark HP #...flywheel, of course. We shall see next week on the dyno.

That would be sick for an HR 23* lt1. I am expecting around that with my SR build .

Anxiously awaiting numbers!

After all this time now I can finally put a face to the name.

And good luck with the dyno. I hope you hit 600!

There was a 396 sbc build in one of the magazines awhile back that hit 603hp with a 242 cam with lift around .600 I think you should hit it pretty easy with that 106 grind you've got Sounds GREAT Makes me want my 396 to hurry up at the machine shop. LoL

If LT1=slow and your 396=LT1, then your 396=slow

Good math I learned
