Still on the bench.
In 06 I had to toss the 454 0.30 over in the scrap pile > from the abuse of drag week.
I want to put a new engine together to compete in the 08 drag week.
496 or 555
The 496 makes great toque and with a good set of heads can make around 730 hp on a 10.5 comp.
The 555 or 565 also makes great hp and a larger price tag.
I had talked to a few people said they did not gain much (.2 to .3) at all when the went to the 555.
Need some input from the guys that went from a 496 to a 555.
Thanks for any input
1979 Camaro t400 with brake,3.50 gears 3800 stall 3400 but going on a 200 lb diet.
Looking for high mid 9s :D
