I miss John in threads like these. lol Most wish they could do what he did with so little. I sure wish he would have taken the time to get that grudge car going. It had 8's written all over it.

I'd step from the Trick Flow up to the 360-1.And the W2 was designed around 1974, and intended for 340-355 cubic inches. Definitely not a "big" head. A Indy 360-1 would be the next step up
My W5 motor 20 years ago had 043 ring pack, Jesel rockers, and 3/8 intake and 7/16 exhaust pushrods, Ti retainers, etc. it ran 74-7500 every pass. It was all 1/4 back then too.
I don’t think rpm is bad, I think rpm bracket racing like I do, isn’t needed, it’s overkill. It’s also less costly. It’s the prevelant way it’s being done. Guy that won the million( Donnie Hagar, a friend of mine) runs 6.30’s in a 2600 pound Vega with a super low budget 383 in it, he is also a World champion.
I am gonna guess you run your mouth way more than you make laps at the track.
I say that because unlike you must be, I have a budget and am trying to retire. It’s easy to spend other’s money, call them names and assume they don’t know all these little “ tricks” you seem to think you exclusively are aware of. What a dunce.
Would love to go to a roller cam, etc, etc, etc. but more cage, a license, yada, yada. None of it will turn on more win lights, just more money, and I have already done all that stuff. I have tons of fun doing what I do.
You can wack your weenie reading magazine articles if you want, I like racing![]()
Meanwhile, what car do you race. You haven’t saidLet me know when you build your own **** that makes 2 hp/cid and then get paid to build other people’s ****.
That means you have to be able to do ALL the machine work, port the heads and intake and then do the tuning yourself.
A ******* bracket racer who never built his own **** should just understand you are out of your lane.
Go build something and get back to me.

Your grumpy, lol

But I like your style
Not mine, popped up on FB.If I find a set of unmolested W5’s would you be interested in porting them?
