I know you can pull an Enderle 110 pump with a belt drive off the crank, any bigger i doubt if you can, but that's big enough for most blown alcohol engines unless you plan to dump a some nitro in it.
On the lighter side a person from Finland bought some parts from Jimmy Smith while he was visiting in the USA a couple yrs. ago. when he got back he sent a bottle of Minttu Snapps, man that stuff is stout, i still have 3/4 of the bottle left. If you get your motor to run as strong as that stuff, it'll be killer for sure.

I was hoping it would be a killer and make over 1000hp...
I will be using pretty Much the same set-up?
572"BBC,Jessel Belt Drive with a Cool Chrome/Moly Bracket for the 110 Enderle.The fellow i bought the Belt drive from,ran a Trigger,Crab Style MSD,and He also had a Pioneer Frt Drive set-up.But,the MSD Crab Style Dist with Crab Cap worked Fine with a HH/Retro Littlefeild 14/71.
I will only be Using a 8/71,on the 572.But it will be ON CORN SQUEEZINS,(E85)
I will be using a set of Merlin 345 IRON Heads,8.2-1 Static,775-800-Roller on a 114.I would Hope you make all of a Grand in HP?Cause im Sh@@ting for 14 to 1500........?We'll See.

Your engine will be all race right?
I'm not sure but would not more static compression be better when running on e85?
I was hoping to runn smaller cam so the valvetrain would have a easier life.
when you have it dynoed please give results! Would be super to compare!
you have more cui, smaller blower and larger cam.
Will you use a bird?

As far as the Dyno?Unfortunately,thats Not in My Budget!
I will be using a Hilborn 4-Port MAGNESIUM Bug(want the Nostalgia Look)
I may end up with a Shorter cam?750-760 Range....?
Actually the Dyno with be a E.T.Slip.Race Only
71---75 Chevy Vega.The Car weighed Less than 1900lbs with a BBC and a Glide,when it was out last.So it will be FUN to Hang-On tooooo!

The 722/722 lunati is one bada$$ cam, I know couple other racers at my track that run it with outstanding results.
Me and Landon run that same grind in our 496's too.
It's funny, theres are a couple guys with (540's) in pro we're giving a run for their money.
They run alkay, have bigger cams and ported out BB2X's - we run 110 race gas and cast iron heads. :shock:
Alot to be said about the right combo.

The Lunati .722 works well normally asperiated, but don't forget he's running blown, so he needs a little more lobe seperation for it to breathe good (Lunati 110*) his is 114*
I've got a similar .725/.725---271/275---108 lobe seperation for the 496" i'm building for a customer.
