Hows it treat you? Do you wish you had gone more aggressive....like gone 274 instead.....

i've got the 274 myself...

It's very streetable. Buuut..

You need the compression to support it, the intake and exhaust to support it.... a small converter, and eliminate as many unused accesories as you can.

I'm running a 9.5" 3300 stall converter, and accesories are waterpump, and alternator... like that it pulls 15" of vacuum and has very nice street manners...

behind a full set of accessories, and a full size converter i have a feeling it would be unhappy.

I've got 11:1 according to a compression calculator, I'm running domed pistons.....I figure I'll lose close to half a point of compression....so I should be around 10.5:1.....I have protopline vortecs...I'll be running AC, waterpump, and alternator.....

I'm hoping for 350HP at this point....I'd like to think I could hit 13's with that and a good stall
