Default Re: Looking for a Mag.

I'm sure a Bob K setup 440-6 engine would better the factory HP/TQ ratings, but in a stock configuration (ex. manifolds & such) the numbers aren't gonna overwhelm a lot of people...I'm not saying that as a slam, I'm saying those things are super efficient and are over achievers. I certified our L72 back in '01 along side Bob K's 440-6 car, and while he was envious of the bbc's port/valve size, I was amazed at how relatively "mundane" the guts of that 440-6 were...tiny ports, smallish valves, a smooth hydraulic cam...nothing you'd except to see in a race car, but a potent package, and big trouble for folks that don't know any better! Check your pm's...
