Some day Bill, some day. I guess the aluminum heads are probably the main difference. Chuck

What RPM did it hit 429 HP? Cam sure does not sound all that radical. Goes to show it does not take radical cam to make horsepower. IF and when Mummert ships my heads I think I will be happy with the results. Heads are a big part of the secret. Back in the day the stock ECK-G heads made a world of difference on a 292.

Impressive. I am planing to keep mine somewhere around 6200 because of the cast pistons. I do not expect to get 400 horses out of it but hope for 350 to 375. More would be good.

Ted, Offset grinding the crank, what did you use for journal sizes and did you use custom rods? Lengths?
