Not really knowing your current 496 application it would be tough for me give you a good safe answer. I would call Brodix or a reputable engine builder and ask them for sure--give them my info below. Here is my current 540 aplication.* This was not a radical 540 build and so i would think your 496 would totally enjoy the extra air and fuel.**** I run with* 10.4 compression with BB-2 Brodix Heads. The intake is a* Brodix part # 201-3 Sonnys Dominator* with matched port Intake. This 1050 HP Dominator Carb was professionally built by Wilson Competition Carbs in Memphis TN.* What they call a Stage 4 Gas Drag--jets 78/88.The cam .647 intake and same for exhaust with Duration @ .050 248 intake and 254 on exhaust.* The seperation is 112.Utilizing* a WinDyn Superflow Dyno (flywheel) --peak hp was 760.4 @ 6100.* and peak tq was at 755.1 @ 4700. Adding 1/2 spacer gave me and additonal 15 hp and also has done a good job of keeping heat from my fuel during cruises on hot summer days with my AC on.I idle in the summer with AC on around 700-800 rpm.* Hope this helps.* gb
