Default Vortecpro - Where Are You??

Hello folks,

Is this member (Vortecpro) still around? Does anybody know him?

If so, can you please let him know there are a few members that are trying to get in touch with him regarding a 396/350 HP engine he sold this month.

I originally bought the engine and trans out of a D/SA Nova, I wanted the trans, and sold the engine to recoup my money, after the engine was delivered to me I noticed the block was filled, so the person who bought it will be getting their deposit back. I now have a NHRA D/SA 396, trust me it's nothing special, but its seems it was recently freshened up, but the heads are a disgrace, after inspection so they will be redone. Dyno sheets supplied with the engine showed 441 HP, which produced 11.20s ETs @ 3450 pounds, room for lots of improvement. After I go through the heads and dyno test the engine its will be for sale again as a NHRA D/SA 350 HP 396.

Engine was built to stock 1968 350 396 specs, although cam duration was 254 @ .050 hyd flat tappet, 460/480 lift. Factory intake with Q-Jet.

Thankyou.

I won't bug you with too many questions:

1. What head casting were you using (063 or 290)?
2. What was the compression ratio?

Paul
