been wondering about my engine. need some advice
I have been building the car of mine for what seem like forever. I'll get the the point. I decoded my SBC the other day and it wasn't good. As it turns out not all 350's are the same. Seems I have a 1974 350 with 333882 heads auto and a 2 brl carb it produces a freakishly low 145 hourespower Stock. I did rebuild it several years ago to drop into my 40 but I sold that car and kept the engine for my 34 build. I'm not sure what size bump stick is in it. I remember telling the guy at the counter to order me one a couple notches above stock. I moved twice since then and lost the card telling me what it is. I did also upgrade to .030 over pistons, block hugger headers and an edelbrock duel carb setup (duel 500 cfm). I'd hate to rip it all apart again but I wouldn't be apposed to dropping some 041 or 186 heads on it if I thought it would be worth it. AS it stands now I think I'm over carberated. Any advice? I don't want a fire breathing monster or anything like that 300-325 ish??? would work for me.
Ditto on the model kits! My best were lost when the Hobby Shop burned under suspicious circumstances....
