Cool man. In my '66 truck its got just a GM Hot Cam with some slightly worked L88 'vette heads and it's a torque monster. HUGE torque curve from like 3500 up to 5500 with at least 400 lb-ft peaking close to 420 lb-ft I think. Peaked hp just shy of 400hp, but that's mainly due to only have a 670cfm Holley on it. Slap on a tried and true 750cfm and it'd be over 400hp for sure.

nothing wrong with old tried and true sbc. last winter i spent my time with ls motors this winter ive gotten my 355 out of my race car to find a bad ring, my last race it had so much blow by the oil blowing out ended up catchin on fire. Im also building 406 as my primary motor. Also buildin a 355 for my brother in law for his 84 chevy truck.
