Re: Long Tube Headers???



I also wouldn't run the pink rods with that combo. They're just heat-treated stock rods and not sufficient for that much compression. Nor are they sufficient for the horsepower you are aiming for. You're putting in a $120 set of rods with a $300 camshaft?? Even a set of eagle I beam (SIR) rods would be a huge improvement over the pink rods. Have you dynoed this motor? Because 525 out of a 355 engine is mighty ambitious. Most of the 500+ hp 350's prove out to be merely 400+ hp (which is nothing to sneeze at).

Not trying to insult here, just pointing out some realities.
