I just bought a brand new set of 292 castings, I'd very much like to send them your way!

Dang, I must have missed that ad

Use the RPM and sell the rest of them.

How many guys saw the HP disappear when they took off their oval port heads and swapped on a pair of Sq. Port heads on a 396 BBC back in the day.

A few years back I bought some stock long slot BBC rocker arms form Summit, they were super nice and made in the USA. Not using them right now but I won't sell them either. Great product for a great price.

If he's going to drive it on the street just jet it down a couple of jets, should work great.

NEW BEST at the slow track @ 1700 DA 1.43 60 foot 6.87 660 foot 10.89 @ 120.2xxx MPH The fast track is .005 quicker and 1.2. MPH faster in the 660, that means high 10.70s @ 122 in 300-500 DA, couldn't be happier! Seem to be stuck @ 1.43 60 @ the slow track. Great job Mark. The night I ran 10.90's w...

WOW! how in the hell would you seal the bottom of the intake port like that???

I have one of those 750 on a street car, I have 68's in the front with 25 high speed bleeds. Cruised around great, has a slight flat spot at 1st but the Thomason Power plate fixed the problem.

They both look almost identical except for the bigger runners. Are you porting the "E" intake Scott?

Was in a factory GM box and never used. Got it when I was a kid (I'm now 69) at Chevy for get this, $35
I made a good investment on that air cleaner.

It's one thing to sell a copy of something, but to use another person's name is outright fraud.

I just sold my "real" L-88 complete air cleaner last year for $3K, guy was thrilled to get it. Some other guy I see at local swap meets wanted it real bad but was only willing to pay $100 for it, LOL.

Interesting for sure on the head flow of a 461X head, I've owned 2 sets and sold them both for some good $$$ as guy thought they were the hot ticket for their cars. I know a few people back in the day that were running the X heads on their encono-dragsters, they made great power with them, most like...

Put in a cam with a 114° LCA it'll run great. My last one did with 11:1
