1/4 mile times with 3.23 gear

Mill the heads?

Why don't you retard your cam a few degrees and see if it picks up the top end?

Its free :lol:
LOL.... the SM heads have a smaller CC than the factree cast I'm sure. And "Free" is one of my favorite words :) Right now it's an excellent driver. Any gas pump is fine, 60 mph is a yawner, idles like a stock 318 2bbl.
