Ok, is this right? 12.5-1 496 with roller cam and 950 Holley in a second gen Nova? Cal traks and splt mono's?

Need to hear more on this combo? Like what heads? Any work in heads and intake? Coverter size, gears, tire size and weight? What RPM do you run this through?

Have had a couple different combo's in my '69. 396/402, 427/390hp oval port motor that runs pretty good and for this car, something seems &quot;off&quot;? No disrespect, but might be able to get this running better.

I think he runs an 850 Holley and I beleive it is a 502 with a sold lifter roller. Its a foot brake race car so not much real advantage to the Cal Tracks IMO. If he changes the converter that car would even be faster. Correct me if I am wrong about the motor size Benny.

454 punched out to a 496 Sammy. Atleast that's what the professor told me.

Yes, the 496 is a 4.25 bore with extra stroke and the 502 gets there with a 4.5 bore. I'm right there with Jed- I've heard Benny say 496 a few times.
