My small block in my D-50 is 10.9 comp. with a 255/266 @.050 cam with 195-200 lbs cylinder pressure. Mine was built for 91 octane but have never ran anything but 93. It has never detonated. I run my timing at 35*.

I was running a 360/380 hp crate motor in my D50 and the short block except for cam is a stock Magnum. It has the .501/.513 hydraulic roller cam. It ran its quickest ET shifting at 5600 rpm. If I went any higher it would nose down and slow down. Ran a best of 7.27 @ 94 mph in the 1/8 at 2950lbs...

A couple of years ago I watched the race on line when Big Chief and Murder Nova was there and Murder Nova did a wheelie all the way across the finish line and still won the race. He ran a 4.43 in the 1/8.

I ran 6.20's in the 1/8 with my small block with a Carter mechanical pump with 3/8 rubber line. I think it would run your motor just fine. Then there is no electric fuel pump noise.

I am using the ARP head bolts on my 360-2's but I am only at 10.9 compression.

I have almost the same motor 394 ci , 10.9 comp. But my cam is 255/266 @.050 ,703 lift with 1.65 T&D rockers and Indy 360-2 heads. On 91 octane pump gas it made 662 hp, 533 tq. I have ran a best of 6.21@110 on drag radials through the mufflers at 2950lbs.

It looks like they will check everything. I am glad we don't have to deal with that stuff around here.

How much ET did you pick up going from gas to alcohol.

I also run a 8 I also run a 8 inch convertor on the street and have no issues. I use to drive 135 miles round trip to the track. Never even noticed a difference.

I agree with 70 aarcuda call PTC. Convertors for turbo cars is going to be tighter than one for a NA motor. The other one should work better. I am running a 8 inch PTC convertor behind my stroked 340 (394 ci).

I read in a magazine a long time ago that the president of NHRA said he wanted a Ford and a Chevy in the final round on Sunday not a Dodge.

The little bit of the wheel house that sticks out above the frame I heated and knocked in with a hammer. It looked fine when I got done. I don't remember how much room it had back there but it never rubbed. The car got totaled while PARKED in the staging lane at one of my local drag strip. The...

I used 10 inch rims on my Demon with the 3 inch spring in board kit, stock width rear and no mini tub. I put M/T 28/10.5 W slick. I think I used 4 7/8 back space.

My pump gas 379 stroke 340 (394 ci) made 662 hp at 7300 on 91 octane. You don't have to turn that much RPM to make 500 hp. I am using CompStar 6.250 steel rods.
