Here is my 2 cents worth. I have a 460 dual carter 600's on a tunnel ram and wild cam. My 9" has 3.25 with a wide ratio toploader. You gotta remember these are light cars, ya my cam doesn't even START to come in until 2000RPM but for my car and 295 rubber which is 26" this is a great setup. I am running down the freeway at about 3000RPM. These cars were not meant to go to ChiTown in from LA. Suck it up - I use ear plugs for long runs. Remember, these biiiiiiig block cars are Harley's on 4 wheels.

My problem is PLUGS. I have the large plug C8A heads and 10.5 compression. With all that carburation I can't seem to get anything colder than Autolite 45's to work for any length of time ON THE STREET. Any suggestions. eric
