Re: BB Chev HP
There is only one Steve Wann.
I remember him wandering about the pits when he probably was around 13 telling everyone how he was kick our butts. AND sure enough for the last 30 +years.....He certainly has done that!!

Re: BB Chev HP
No, I know a certain A/S that ran 136 @ Pomona (1000) feet, it didn't make close to 700 HP. What helps a 375/396 is how it carries the power past peak, average HP.

Re: BB Chev HP
I completely agree with you there. I figured the 587 would put you around an -.80 under car, give or take a little. If a guy wants to be competitive in a heads up race against the top dogs - you'll need that 645 range. Just my perspective.
