The machine shop says if I mill the heads .030 it will be back to stock compression , if I go .040 it will be a little higher compression . I would have to shim the rocker stands or buy shorter push rods . I can get the heads and cam locally for $300 . It would cost more than that to upgrade the stock heads .

Here's a youtube vid of a Yukon Denali running a mid 13 with a procharger on it. That's a 6,000lb SUV!

This is what you need for a power plant. I realise the cost would be crazy but 800 hp on pump gas! :grin:

I'm looking at the Shelby GT 500 or a Z06,  More Z06's out there so there price is a little more realistic for me.

You cannot get another Vette, remember the last time you owned one, or do you remember the Po Po owning you?????

The cam I am putting in is a Comp xer 287 hr . With the heads and springs I am running it is supposed to make around 450hp on engine , 600-650 on spray . And it will still run on 93 .

800 hp on pump gas is 800 hp on pump gas! :smile30:

This is true but if it was an 800 HP GM motor it would be more reliable.  :smile30:

I've towed an awful lot of GMs over the past couple of summers and not one Ford.

Hmmmmmm

Two reasons for that.  You are like one of those ambulance chasing lawyers only stalking GMs and the Ford guy opted to swim his shit to the boat ramp.  :smile30:

Maybe because there are only a few people who are willing to run a Ford motor in thier boat . There are thousands of people who run Chevy motors in thier boats . No matter how good the engine design there is always someone who manages to screw up a good thing .
