Better heads

fishy,
I agree that we have to use what works best for each of us.

On your statement on aerodynamics, I don't think that a 71 Duster qualifies for being the slickest aero car out. LOL
But better than a truck, I agree. But for point sake and the 400 lbs difference of yours and our duster that 14's and 12's don't compute. Cam and intakes are only worth about 1/2 a sec. or so. As the faster you go the more power it takes to go faster.

We had a bone junkyard stock 318 2bbl engine in the duster a few years back and it ran 8.88 / 8.89 in the 1/8 as this is what most tracks here run. This should be 14's in the 1/4 since 7.99 = 12.99 and 8.49 = 13.99 according to NHRA.

To me MPO the thermoquad carb is close to the Edlebrock carb for metering fuel, there good for emissions and street performance but not performance orenited enough to get real performance HP. And the Holley's are a much better choice.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on the heads, and as you say we each have to use what works for each of us. Sorry to hijack the thread, and if I offended anyone about the magnum heads. As I'm sure that there are some good ones out there.
