I do too but that's as big as I'll go. I don't like the rod angle on a 347 for the street and it would be too much money to go to a Dart block so I can go with a larger bore. I just needed a little more midrange to keep up with the Z06. He didn't have to change gears and as soon as I got into the lower range of 4th he started to pull until I got to 5000rpms. That's the advantage of having 427ci and the disadvantage of having 302ci with a centifugal. I think that with either a 331 or a smaller pulley and everything else the same on my car that we would have been even or that I could have pulled him the same way he did me.
