man you guys get some speed out of your changa's! I'm hoping to GPS mine in the spring. need a better prop first.
setup is an edlebrock intake mani, comp cam and lifters its only the 5.7 though. I'm hoping for mid-low 60's. I'd love to be able to get my hands on an alpha SS, but its not in the budget right now

The stock 330 big blocks would only do 65, you are going to have a hard time getting there with a small block

I posted an Apha SS for sale ($1,500) here in town a few months ago. He ended up selling it local after a few weeks.

I did not know they offered a small block in 1991?

actually I've read that the 350's were only a few mph slower then the 454 in the P-22 so that's actually very encouraging! the 5.7L was rated at 270hp that year + the upgrades hopefully put me in the neighborhood of 290-300hp. the previous gen 454 was rated at 300hp and weighs more so...its not completely unrealistic, although I know better then to try and wish for any more then 65 with the SBC

guess its easy to speculate all of this from my computer chair now comes the torture of having to wait for 6 months to see if any of my theory is true
