Should I atleast be able to hit 14's with this combo?
I bought the long block rebuilt 25,XXX ago and I swapped out the tbi for carb. It is a temporary motor till I finish gathering all the parts for the LS1 swap. I only paid $400 for the engine after I heard it run and then added the aftermarket.

191 heads ( I know, crappy heads)

Weiand 8024 dual plane intake
Holley double pumper 670cfm
Msd hei distributor

and the other mods in my sig.

 

Mid 14s sounds possible.

 

Cant see why low 14's arn't possible or possibly a high 13
my 385 runs low 13 high 12s

 

I would be happy with anything under 14.9. My last couple of birds had lb9's and 700r4's and were running 15.4. I got this Formula and drove it for 2 days before the engine went so hopefully his engine is a decent performer.

 

Man, it is so cheap to build a stroker motor that will carry one of theese to 13.00, bt for some like myself that isnt enough.

 

This is just a temporary motor till I do the LS1 swap next year. Otherwise I would build a stroker.

 

Steve, I am looking for a buddy to go on a secret trip to the track when my car runs, you up for it maybe?

 

Sure, let me know when and hopefully it'll be running.

 

Ok, Engine and tranny are in with the mods in my sig and should be running this week. Any other thoughts? I'll be swapping in some 3.73's too.

 

The heads/cam are going to kill you, but I would say with a decent 60ft, you could pull low 14's.

 

I know the cam is small but I didn't want to push these crappy heads. If I can find a good deal on heads this winter while it's in the garage I'll buy them and a bigger cam.
