Two Dyno days one winner

[FETorino]

I know at least two people on here that are building something other than an LS. I'm calling the other guy out.

I'll have my Dyno results on the 9th or 10th of Nov. Who thinks that little SB2 Flash is building will beat my 1960s tech motor?

What ya got Dave? Will that motor of yours run this year or not

Wait... what? How many cubes you got? You know if I was smart I woulda said we compare hp/tq per cubic inch!

You go first....good...so I can turn up the wick when it's my turn.

I'd have to guess (hope) I'll be on the dyno by end of November.

Dart Little M block
4.170 bore x 4.00 stroke = 437 cubes
10.8 to 1 compression
Joe Gibbs SB2.2 heads
Ported GM intake

I can see you now..... Hey Mike what if we put a bigger cam in this thing will we be able to beat the Ford? The other Chevy guys on the forum will never let me forget this.

I didn't set the bar very high. Just about 10% higher than an old ZL1.

A 23 degree SBC can hit those numbers.

My Dad always used to say "cubic inches or cubic money"... we'll see!

Being a Pontiac guy with traditional power that surprised a lot of people I'm rooting for the... er... um... Ford.

Well I have neither of those cubic things so I might be in trouble.
