    WOW...big numbers.

    So are you only running CMC then?

    I still can't decide which to run.

    i was hoping to cert for CMC and CMC-2 but i dont have plates for the CMC-2 numbers.
    w/ the numbers the unrestricted numbers madeby the green car we sold, James', cas, and Al's car, i was thinking a plate wouldnt be needed or at least i could just ballest up to the number it made if it was over 260/310. but the chart only goes to 267/317 which is 3400lbs. i'm pretty sure i would exceed the max ballast limit of 150lbs.

    I wasn't at the dyno today but apparently my car pulled some very interesting numbers... 235/~258? I should be running CMC!

    I have to wonder why it seems down on torque. MFW has some ideas but for now it's running fine, and it's what I'm running!

    Yeah, I thought TG said you should only be longtubes from 260/300..? :lol: Your motor is stock down to the paper filter. HP # was spot on where I expected it....the torque was about 20 lower than I expected. I need to look at the a/f readings but there isn't anything I can do to change them even if they are wacked out. I will keep an eye out for the LT's and get you a $$$ to build a "TG" shortblock. :wink:
    Ah, fugg it.

    Didn't you guys have to change the crank bearings or something (sorry can't remember) Could it still be just real tight?

    Ross, the original motor had a rod-knock so we put a different block in.
