I've finally decided I'm using race fuel. Extra $300 a year. Not confident that pump gas can be consistent run to run and week to week.

You basically have what I am running. Similar internals. 425 cu in. Same carbs ons a crossram. I stayed with 10 to 1 compression ratio to tolerate using pump gas. It still diesels so I shut it off with the 727 in gear. Bent a custom push rod once. I add a few gallons of VP 109 octane. It seems to like that.

I've embarked on building a 600 HP+ ENGINE for my Belvedere. I'm not out to set low ET, just want a reliable unit capable of going into the 10's in a sub-3500# '65 Belvedere. 600 - 625 HP to allow me to dip into 10's. Been mid-30's with 525 HP +/_ and a bit more weight.
So far, we've ordered the Trick Flow 240 heads (non-Max Wedge ports), have an in-Line Edelbrock CH-28 Dual Quad intake with 600 cfm carbs complete with linkage and fuel lines, 440 block. Ordered a high dollar Milodon pan, windage tray and external oil system. Suspension is in - all Calvert. Pulling back seat in A-990 fashion.
Next step is 4.25 stroker with likely 11 - 1 compression - time will tell - race gas motor. Billet main caps. Solid Roller, about .700 lift, with Harland Sharp rockers and stafts.
Anyone with spare parts in thie unpurchased area, I'm interested.
