I can put you in touch with the owner of this one. Owner wants to build something different now, I'm sure its for sale. J.Rob
This 436ci Small-Block Mopar Makes Big-Block Power On Pump Gas
What makes you say that? Just because I am trying to push a reclining refrigerator on wheels through the air? 8-)Andrew, I will probably get flamed for saying so, but you don't need 700hp to max out top end very quickly with these cars. Even with your aero enhancements, the wind is not your friend.
Why is 700 the magic number?
If you need a 700hp dyno slip you could probably build a 650hp and still get one that says 700 on some local import tuner's dyno . ;-)
Thanks i took a look and some aspects of it dont float my boat.Crazy torque per cid.
If the OP goes with heads that flow closer to 400 cfm he should be able to reach his goal.
But buying that engine would be more cost effective.
Hey!!!!!!Why is 700 the magic number?
The disclaimer **A dyno is just another tool**.
On pump 93 my N/A 434 dynoed 703 hp @ 5750 rpm's and 624 ft lbs @ 5000 rpm's on Dale Meers dyno at Meers Racing Engines in Buffalo KY. I'm not going to speculate if it's a generous or stingy dyno. All I wanted to do was break in and tune my engine in on it.
It's gone 108.59 mph in the 1/8 in my 3350# 69 Dart.

I have that in my pile of research. I would have to redo the rotating assembly, but it would be a good starting point.440 W2 for sale in WOODBURY, CT, Price: $12500
Not exactly pump gas friendly but gives an idea what it takes to get there.

However you can buy a brand new NASCAR motor for the same coin.
My blue car ran 109-110 at that same weight, and right at 135 in the 1/4. It was geared for the 1/4,rarely race 1/8 mile around here.Ryan and other guys said it made right about 640. That was the general opinion of a long thread on the other board few years ago. Time has proven they were right.
The guy who bought the car upgraded the motor quite a bit after he bought the car. It now runs 113-114 in the 1/8 and 140 in the in the 1/4. That made 708 at Best Machine on the dyno.
And the car is still on 002/003 leafs and CE 3 way shocks all around, so nothing trick on that front.
Runs good, but it aint making 700 running 108 in the 1/8. Probably 625-635 area. like you said, Dyno is a tuning tool, and helps with convertor selection.
I argued this some years ago and it occurs to me I might be in the same situation here. When someone says "pump gas" I make the assumption that it's gasoline, or a 90/10 gasoline ethanol blend that anyone purchases out of a pump at any quickie-mart or gas station anywhere in the country. Not the "pump fuel" lower octane race fuels that are carefully formulated and bought at the track. So to clarify - where is the OP on that?
