Beefed up My six, need more power to the Rear
My slant was beefed up by Doug Dutra. We used his smaller spec'd cam and a 350cfm Holley. It wasn't until I dialed in the distributor with significantly more initial timing ( like 22*), but with only 32* total that it really came to life. It would burn the tires with 2.97 gears and a 904.
The timing was sorted using the standard vacuum gauge technique. Once it was all done and running great, I decided to pull it one day, sell it and put a junkyard 5.9 Magnum in it with EFI.
I was just tired of the slant. Now I have a 408 that gets better mileage and has just south of 500 hp.
