Thumbs up Small Block Grunt
Those in the know who work to develop the Hp we all covet will tell you that a REAL small block 289 will be done at about 510 HP with ALL the tricks for Vintage Car classes. No power adders, lots of compression using only OEM heads, no strokers, or nitrous. 1-4BBL Holley, lots of RPM. If you have ever been around one at the track you won't overlook it and they are often brought in for exceeding the decibel level at specific tracks, they love open exaust.
