Reading Books
I love reading books on sbc's and cars in general. Knowledge plus 1000. Front to back in 1 day and I feel happy I am learning more terms. I was always like wtf is deck height, now I know and it feels good!

Knowledge begets wisdom.
Never stop learning.

how about instead of posting prescriptions, you actually build and install a motor then actually dyno said motor, then post the chart....

I have a job that will. Just need things like rear end, shift kit, subframe connectors, and springs. Then I'll get the stuff... Actually I think I'm going to spring for my longblock early.
As far as the book goes its from Chevy high performance. Cant remember the title but it has a red cover with a sbc with a weiand blower and dual carbs ontop, if that helps. I'll find it out at lunch.
