Hey all just wanted to give you guys a few updates ill upload photos and vodeos soon but my motor was on the dyno here at mckeown and with a faulty ignition box i made 391hp with a 650 carbuerator so it didnt have my systemax intake on it so if it changes it will most likely drop the rpms at which it reaches 391. With the carb it was at 6100 at 391

No no im not at all im going back monday to do a few more pulls with a new ignition box and or battery he had a problem with his dyno where it would miss a little bit and then cut off but if he would turn his switch off then back on he would get a spark again but if he didnt touch the switch he wkuld not have a spark it was really strange but hopefully he fixes it by tomorrow

Yeah the motor specs are 347 with -22 cc pistons and built edelbrock heads with a tfs stage one cam. And the total compression ratio ended up being 8.5:1

I hate seeing nice clean engines like that. Makes me too worried to run them for fear of getting them dirty.
