302 LX Eric- what c.i. stroker do you have?

It's a 331. 3.25" stroke w/4.030 bore. It's setup at 9.2:1 comp, so it should be just perfect for about 10 lbs. of boost and 500 HP.

I've only got to run it a couple times at the track on drag radials with my best 60' a 1.91.

I'm racing in a private tuning session with a local Grand Prix group this weekend at my home track, National Trails. Hoping for a 12.5x @ 111 mph!!! Wish me luck.

As for the inquiry about Bennett, I've heard that they build some of the baddest Ford motors around, but it'll cost you. Just looking at their ad in MM&FF, it's darn near $10,000 for a 331!

A guy I see at the track sometimes has a Bennett built motor - I think it's like a 327 or smaller that runs 8's on a single turbo. Lee Howie is the guy's name. He won the True Street class at Norwalk FFW a couple years ago and has been featured in MM&FF a while back.
