That was with only 393ci Cleveland built for a race 1/4 miles back to back in the real world as uposed to the dyno queens we see in EMC.
The aforementioned AFD 2v heads were the early series heads first produced by AFD. This engine was built by one of Australia's most reputable racer/engine builders & has made many passes in competition.

nuff said.

Interesting reading

Is it just me that noticed the Edelbrock heads were run with a mild hydraulic roller cam and not a monstrous .770 lift 270 .050 solid roller.

Any wonder they were down 130. I think your hand finished AFD heads may have been in for a rude shock if the Edelbrocks were put on the same engine

How about comparing apples with apples instead of trying to make one product look good, against one that was clearly not meant designed to make the same hp level
