Some of us would like to see competition classes not only for the smaller engines such as 235s and 248s, but also for a larger-displacement class of engines like the Packard eights and the 413 cid Dodge truck motors that Tom the "Beater" has been collecting. In order to compete at all now, these engines must conform to regulations designed for the speeds that Hemis and big-block bent-eights generate.
When i think, as i frequently do, about the GMC 248 crank in a 302 block, i think about taking more advantage of the improved breathing capability of a 12-port head for more horsepower at a higher rpm.
God's Peace to you.
