Overkill! I love it. Killing ants with a sledgehammer.

Well the short block is now assembled and I am still waiting on my bare heads from AFR.
Also I have to get more done on the Regal project so I can get it out of the garage to have room to work on the Monte.

What did your "old" setup run in the 1/4? This is incredible to watch

Sorry, no actual times only speculation but is seems peppy enough.😉

I finally received my bare heads from AFR these are the full CNC 357 Magnums.
The max flow at .800 lift is 425 intake and 327 exhaust.
They might end up flowing a little more since my bore and exhaust are larger than what they test with.
They did some very nice work on these, now I just have to order the rest of my Manley parts.

Very nice beast of an engine. Do you know how much the old one weighed and how much the new one will weigh compared to it?

Are you talking about the heads? If so they will weigh only slightly less since my old heads are AFR CNC 335's.

no I meant the entire engine

I have no idea what the entire engine weighs.
