car is too slow
hey zipper when describing your engine and car(weight) you are describing my 67 nova exactly. im the guy having the overheating problem , which you and others responded to. i have the 377, 13-1, 660 (280) duration cam with 220 cc runner heads, powerglide, 561 gears and an 8 inch, 5500 stall converter. cant get it to go over 7500 rpms through traps and it should be up around 8000 coming through traps. also has aluminum rods and is built to run at 8000 rpms. this was the setup for my 355 that blew up and it screamed through traps at around 8000 rpms. this one isnt even close. converter wronG for this engine, or just worn out? valve springs weak? what are you thinking. PS it was way under carbed AND LEAN. NEW, BIGGER, RIGHER CSRB GOING ON TODAY. THANKS ART
