351W or 460 ?

[86GT]

90GT398,
I agree, it should have been, but remember, he had a Victor Jr. headed 408 that made serious power to a relatively mild 460. He plans on Blue Thunder heads in the future. He reused the carb from the 408, some 750cfm Demon carb (not sure on the specs). How is a 1.9 60' for 11.78 sound? Compared to a 1.68 for a 12.1? His M/T's are worn, so thats a future consideration for him too. No flames here, so no worries.

In street trim, the 408 wasn't the most pleasant to drive through town, but the 460 is a lot more forgiving that way. (Not a wild setup yet, that's why).

IMO, I think the suspension needs a bit of tweaking, and new slicks to help the traction.



Back to the original post, Quantum, do what fits your budget best, and enjoy it. A 351W swap will work fine, and produce tons of power, so will a 460. It all depends on what you want.
