The path I chose with this car more than satisfies my need for speed and has for the last 23 yrs. hope you find what works for you.

Mike,
The fact that you have kept a setup for 23 years sound like it something you enjoy. I'm glad you like the big block and it satisfies your needs. When the time is right I can only see moving up to the 385 series platform as well.
