3 tenth in 1/8 is a good gain for sure
… I can agree with that, but that’s what Mike has in the car so we wanted as apples to apples as we could get and a cam change with the new heads would’ve negated that data …

… maybe the next cam makes it even faster 👍🏻 …

Shouldn't be hard to pick up with, current cam leaves a lot on the table imo

Thats a loaded post with loaded questions called "quick sand".

I do not know what Mike weighs, used 200lbs for the math.
What my heap has done is no secrete.
10.80 guy, not sure if I could fit all my NHRA trophies in the trunk of ,my GTO.
Yeah, whoever originally set up his car, kind of strange. 8000RPM 900 HP cam takes a whole lot of other stuff to work. 1250 carb, 5500+ converter. Not your average pump gas 505 for sure.
That guy... I would let you port my heads first.

A 505 on its second set of aluminum heads running a 6.74, well, that is how BBCs end up in Pontiacs.
I am just glad he got it straightened out and still has a Pontiac in it.
Whatever head keeps a Pontiac in a Pontiac is a good head.
With the right cam and converter there is a lot more left in it.
Get the 60fts down in the 1.2s and let it eat.

Brian,
Not saying Mikes cam is right or wrong, but the cam is part of a combination. He had .727 intake lift and the head flowed around 367 cfm there. What was your intake valve lift and head flow at that lift?

Well, high 1.2s might be a little optimistic. But he should be able to get a mid 1.3 out of it with more tuning Takes 750 HP.
I have little doubt my 461 will get me in the 1.3s.

I'm aware Stan, but that's a whole lot of duration for that combo. The HP engine would have ran better with a proper cam, just like the cv1 will with a proper cam.

If he's the one that selected the cam, I'm doubting he's all that smart. Bigger isn't better.

… I don’t know about your car being no secret but I would certainly like to see actual time slips of what it runs, if you have all those trophies then surely you have time slips right ? …
… so let’s see one 👍🏻 …

I'm starting to think you don't know who he is either.
