How hard would you push the block on a SBC?
Right now i have a 84 camaro..Stockblock 355 2 bolt mains. arp main studs, Cat Forged rods, Cat forged Crank, TRW forged 9.1 pistons, ported aluminum dart pro 1 heads, dart cool can intake, 750 Holley DP.
1 5/8 headers, and a PS-1C Procharger, good balancer, 1.65 harland sharp roller rockers and stud gurdals, cam has .523/.544 lift and 224/234 duration at 112 centerline (t56 6 speed and 373 gears)
The car ran a best time last year of 11.70 on drag radials at 122mph in the 1/4mile at only 6psi of boost.. (car weighs 3800+lbs with driver and sterio) i toped out in 4th gear and had to use 5th gear going threw traps!
I just installed 3.73 gears and a 1/4 inch smaller pulley.. now at 8-9psi.. (700 estimated HP with open headers)
I am contimplateing adding a large intercooler and jumping to 12-15psi..(currently no intercooler)
The car is already sick fast.. when i take anyone for a ride, they cannot believe how fast it is while being well manared on the street!
How much further would you take this motor with its stock block??
