Hope yours goes just as well.

Peak power at 5100rpm seems a little strange though, maybe diff gears had a thing to do with that with their roller tacho, same goes for the torque, i think they can play a part in that too. What do you mean by it revs 300 more rpm to 6200? As in the rev limiter has been bumped up from 5900 to 6200rpm? Also what colour is your car Tony? Me mate picked up his AU from BPT today and said he seen a blue one there that made the same numbers, im guessing this is your car?

Good to see this combo is consistant! Tony which block did you end up choosing? Is this the one your dad Steve was asking about which has SVO (Cleveland) mains? If so be careful, I've only been able to find companies such as Callies, Crower & Bryant out of the US who'll make a crank to suit, and they're nearly $4000! I might have to get some money together if you are looking to sell off your existing engine.

IMHO opinion you'd be better off organising a custom solid roller to make the most of your new heads and capacity. 363+ cubes with those heads and the right camshaft can make 600+hp. Let me know if you are interested.
