There is still more in the tune, just need to spend some time on it, headed to Dallas tomorrow for some TNT only 6 hrs away, I'll post the graph when i get back in town, hopefully with some new numbers too!!

Very impressive numbers for a N/A vehicle. Seems like a pretty mild but perfectly setup combination ---

Nice numbers! I too plan on building a somewhat similar setup this spring, gathering parts now. Forged 385 strictly E85, about 14.2 SCR, (about 10 DCR), hydraulic roller, using the 21* TFS heads worked by either LE or AI, but car will be more street/RR use. Was hoping to see about 470 rwhp with that, so these numbers really get me optimistic.

Welding fabricating, and a small parts list, after you start off with a 1500.00 Jessel belt drive and distributor setup for a SBC

Wow that is one of the cleanest under hood pics that I have seen. I really would like a little more info on the waterpump and distributor setup. Did you have to put spacers behind the where the waterpump used to bolt up? Do you have any part numbers b/c i would love to get rid of this opti and that looks way cool. LMK Clint
