Big Block Edelbrock limitations.

Most of our cars are running radials now, mono's/caltracs, in my view they are all soft on camshafts and mostly just bolt ootb stuff together and hope it works ok without really thinking properly of their combo and what works and doesn't.

There is another guy who runs a '68 Cuda who's got it together, been doing it for years, runs an all ally 540 wedge with -1's on alcohol, Rons toilet etc., 14x32 Hoosier tyre and has got it down to 8.70's@152, with a best of 8.66 so far, so its not all bad, but thats only 2 I can think of out of the many BB stroker motored cars that run like they should.

There is a 2900>3000lb strip car running a 14:1 572 wedge that runs 9.7's with a best of 9.66@131, I won't bother going into why its so slow especially on the mph but thats the sort of thing there is, others with 540's running 9.7>8's...I've learnt to keep quiet these days when I'm at the track watching and talking with them, cos they are trying.
