Real life experience trumps Google anytime- - - -the 383's my competition ran saw the back end of my car diving into the turn ahead of them on a regular basis. We ran 327's and the occasional 350, and easily turned them up 1500 RPM tighter than those grasscutter strokers could manage. "Build 'em little- - - -wind 'em tight- - - -and get the chemicals just right!"

The 252 cubic inch small block Chevy with the 2 7/8" stroke that I've got under construction at the moment will run 8K+ RPM all day. If my driver manages to get out front with that one, the only thing the race will determine is "Who ran second?"
