Hello List,

I told you earlier to go with a big block. A set of headers and having to
adapt a couple pipes to the new headers are not much work, considering what
else you are up against. If he shop can build reliable 600 horse olds 350

I hope the overdrive solves that problem.
I'm not sure why you're taching 4000 at 80 MPH. Thunder has a 4.1 rear gear
and 28" diameter rear tires. Arizona has a 75 MPH speed limit on the
freeway, which means that I will cruise at 78 MPH. That's 4000 RPM on my
tach. Thunder will cruise that w

I guess you've never heard a race engine with a top end that sounded like a

What would be the alternative?

Sounds pretty cool, eh?

They said that Olds engines pump too much oil to the heads,
leaving very little for the bottom (crank). To fix this, they would put

It makes sense that he does not want to use used DIESEL head bolts, but why would you worry about used gas engine bolts? Are they different? George

You know, I've seen this discussion before and I knew as soon as Bruce mentioned it, there would be a flurry of "Don't use restrictors" I still can't figure out why you guys are so dead set against these, because Mondello recommends and sells them?
