We ask questions because we want the shortest learning curve available and it's a hell of a lot easier (and cheaper) to get answers from those of you who might have them, than to learn them the hard way . .

Not that we're lost, as we've been in the money twice last year . . We just wanna do it as easily as possible . . Hell, I'm an old guy, I'm tired of climbing mountains and fighting thunderstorms . . There's a bunch of know how here and I'd love to share what I've learned about other classes of drag racing with guys who're successful in the brackets . .

Bracket racing is a whole hell of a lot different than either heads up or index racing . . But most of you know that . .

On the Headwork, they've been massaged by Steve Schmidt (former Pro Stocker and engine builder) and are all CNC . . At this point the heads aren't close to their potential, I believe, as we've had other glitches. Those, as far as we can tell, have been cured and we're just waiting to get the car to a race and see what the results on the present setup will be . .

Thanx again to both CNCMotorsport and Hammertime . . serious discussion with factual info . .
Not sure how far the 360 heads have been taken, but they are capable of making 950+ Horsepower on the 632.

Not sure where you want to be at for over all horsepower, but this will give you a basic idea of what you can look for.

Good luck
This Kind of Gives me a bit of Info?
I have a 634 that little by little I'm peicing back together?Had a few Main bearings Spin,so I ended yup with it?
Callies Ultra Crank& Rods,2-Sets of Pistons,set of 18*,and a set of 23*,and Just figured I put my Dart CNC Pro-1 355's on with the 23* pistons,and it will be 16.1,dont have a Cam,but would get something in the Range NEEDED?
Was REALY Hoping to make 1050??But,after reading the about post?You got me THINKING>?Although I know thw 355's are a Much better Flowing Head than the 360!
I'll just keep Plugging along and see what Happens,.............?
Later
