You just need to watch your tune up as you come down in elevation. When you build your engine around nose bleed DA's and then you start dropping down you can kill parts in a hurry.

Appreciate it. I doubt my car will ever run in lower elevation, but if it does, I will make sure to tune appropriately.

Pueblo raceway is 4800 ft. With e85, You May run into problems since the required fuel volume is much higher than gasoline. So the afr will slip towards lean more quickly.

Almost done. Painted her today factory 72 blue.
e85 requires about 30 percent more volumn of fuel.....make sure the carb is built for e85,,,,a good holley black pump with no.8 line will do the trick ...

Today she made her maiden voyage. Cam broke in, a few pulls to break the rings in and away we go. Pretty weak burnout, but I didn't want to push her too hard yet.

Here is some advice that is worth what you are paying for it.
If you don't have a pin gauge set, get one. Worth every penny.
Then pull the carb apart and pin gauge every single hole in the metering blocks. Then write it down.
I just did a gas carb and it had some holes that were absolutely wrong. Dead wrong. So I called Holley to make sure I wasn't nuts, and the answer from them was just as bad.
You may not have any issues, but you need to verify that stuff.
That cam is vary close to the cam i had made for my 408.
Told them that i raced at 6600 foot, and wanted to stretch my 3000 stall converter.
Running a little bit more compression and the cam is a Hyd roller
.562/.550 lift 243/247 @.50 duration. ground on a 106 lobe seperation and degree in at 100. as per recommendation.
Only race it, but vary happy with it. RHS head not Trick Flow.
Just showing another High altitude, purpose built cam, for a stroker.
Oh and mine runs out of breath at 5800 rpm.......will go to 6700 but there's no power there.

Hey B3422W5 your inbox us full, so will ask you here. You mentioned using a 260/264 @ 50 cam in stock stroke 360! Did you advance cam any? How about rear gears? Curious cuz I want to use a 292 mopar purple cam in my stock stroke 360.

Its on a 106, installed per Howards suggestion at 102
28 tire. Had 4.10 gear for a long time. Swapped to 4.30 because 4.10’s were howling. Actually likes the 4.10’s at the track better.
With 4.30’s car is in high gear longer.
Idles at 900, sounds like a super stocker with that choppy big cam.... LOL
