Subject: [Chevelle-list] help, need
horsepower
Hi gang, hers the deal..
I have a 1971 El Camino 350CID motor in my
64...
it is very, very slow.
I have the stock powerglide, and 3.something to 1
rear gears..
4 bbl edelbrock 600 carb, power plus aluminum
dual plane intake, stock ram horn exhaust manifolds with 2.5" duals with
glasspacks. HEI dist with good 8.8mm wires.
What do I need to do to get some power out of
this thing. It is such a dog as is... I have super skinny 13" tires and
cant even do a burnout most of the time..
I'm not looking for 8 million horsepower, just
something a little more respectable than the 110 HP is feels like I have
now..
do I need to build up the motor some, or would a
trans swap to a 200R4 be the way to go?
Thank you for any help you can
give..
