Another 512 build

AndyF said

If the car has been 9.20 then you should be good to go. That is a good baseline to work from. The 512 is probably 100 lbs heavier than the W8 engine so that will change things. Have you weighed the car yet? Any idea on the power difference between the W8 engine and the 512?

not sure what it weighs. Its still all steel except for the hood and front bumper. Still has original glass and all the windows still have regulators. Only real weight loss is the loss of the inner fender wells and aftermarket front suspension. It’s got a huge radiator in it now (for street use). I know when it had a SB it just had a tiny one. I’d have to think that small block had another 100 hp on it pretty easily but can say for certain. Looking forward to getting it out and getting it dialed in this year.
