Had he only went with a set of heads done by my guy and a real cam, his power and curve would be healthy...Oh well. He learns the hard way!

The bad thing is his old set up with the 98 heads and small RPM 2 cam made more power.. So he spent more money to lose power.. Just doen't make since to me.. But what do I know..

Midwest 3600 stall, Lt's, TD's, and a lid is all. It might be a challenge for you if I had my lug wrench and jack at my house down here so I could put on my ET streets. but on bald tires you will prolly kill me.

I am sure that Notch with a heart will be able to beat what I have planned.

I am not willing to strip the car apart...... only plan to make around 500 horses give or take....... and the bottle wont go on until late next summer.

Hutto.... I spoke to Chris last night... his price is comparable to TSP.... so i would rather go with him then TSP.... the only one that will compete with Chris in my book is Erik....... either of the two of them for the cam/heads. I am waiting on some numbers from Erik on a set of cnc heads that he has in the shop...... Chris is pretty knowledgeable. The only concern between picking between the two is that Erik might be able to setup the cam on an engine dyno... but I think Chris has one.... i would have to get the mottor to him.

The head numbers are really all that needs to be used to choose the cam..At least the main ingredient. THe rest is valvetrain and very little to do with the actual shortblock as far as making good power is concerned. Now how hard you want to spin it and what the purpose of the whole is, thats a different category.
