Default Re: Anyone running a Pro Stock style engine/modern head..

I personally never got real involved with any form of bracket racing but years back just playing around we built a "low buck" bracket car engine--- rebuilt a junkyard 500 CI Cadillac with ALL STOCK PARTS for less than probably maybe a thousand dollars tops--- never ran it over 4900- 5000 RPM almost totally stock maybe an electronic ignition and some type of carb change don't remember--- tons of torque low maintenance ran a whole year didn't change the oil didn't change the plugs NOTHING maybe 250 passes--- never took the valve covers off--- totally foolproof -- won a bunch of money and just sat back and watched all the other racers thrashing and all--- do not see why you need the latest trick of the week or $10,000-$50,000 plus Reher Morrison engines or any builder to race-- all you are doing is running a .90 number whatever that number might be---do it he cheapest most efficient way you can--my 2 cents --FED 387
