I have a 393 and a 408 . The 393 has better parts and makes more power.
If the 408 had the heads a cam off the 393 it would be better.
The stock 351 blocks are just OK. The 302 blocks will split down the middle when you start making alot of power.

Re: Jsut for kicks, If money was no object
My dream car would be a ADRL - IHRA Pro Stock car.
Big cubic inches with a clutch.
For right now I would settle for my new turbo car.
I have worked on the car for over four years. It hurt the new to me used motor after four passes.

Thanks guys.
About the paint.
I have several cars and trucks that are all red with white stripes. It took me 5 years to get this new car together and everyone always said paint this one different so I did.

Re: 7000 rpm pop in high gear
I think the problem is in your tow truck.
A good looking tow truck with a rear plate.
I hope you get it fixed and come back to ORP in Oct.
