Yeah, it's amazing how the "advice" for a street driven truck morphed into 6k @ 100% ve fire snorting monster.....

Not that amazing of an engine really
Ever heard of ram air, a turbo or supercharger? 100%+ VE (search youtube for Nelson, Moran, Morris, Fulton, etc. engines)
He stated a 3K stall convertor which indicates, to me, that the engine revs over 5K. Otherwise why have a hi stall? So 6K redline is not reaching
Stock heads are easy enough to swap out for AFR's/ Brodix
I never claimed it was goin to be 100%VE, but carbing it for it.
A Dominator might not be the hot call but 750cfm is 400ci territory.
DP's are strictly for race cars? Sheesh I guess the 850DP on my 383 makes it a race truck
DP's do take more tuning skill to dial in
I thought the solid roller cam in my 68 w/ 3K convertor was what made my daily (summer) driver a race car.
My Burban is closer to what Harrison. has in his truck, though I've got a 400 w/ 750 vac sec, RPM intake, ported OE heads & 276 hyd roller cam & 2K convertor. Though aftermarket heads would really wake up this engine.
Dang I don't know nuthin
