I would be pissed! Get a stock motor for cheap and add 100 shot and you'll have more Hp.

If it makes you feel better, my MP 380 hp in a 3480 lb duster doesnt go faster than 14s. $800 stall, tti headers and lower gears added. Did NO better than the stock reman 360, stock convertor and non posi gears. I WASTED all that money for nothing and only get 9 miles per gallon. What a piece of garbage!

There is nothing to be pissed about. It is what it is and I will continue to tweak things. I built this motor to race it at the most two seasons in my 71 V24 Duster before I tear it down for a full restoration. Then it will be converted to a street car and my 72 will trade places as my more dedicated drag car. The 72 is an original slant 6 car and doesn’t have much value. The V24 is far more rare and cool. If I got pissed off every time I have a set back I would have given up years ago. To me this is just the start for this motor and I’m really looking forward to running it.
