Untill you have to replace valve springs every 20 miles. These engines turn 9500-10200rpm through the trap.

But our SB2 small blocks turn 10500-11000 rpm

this particular L36 will be getting a cam treatment, and some "Minor" Port work. just enough to waken it up some more. Compression will be raised to 10.8:1.

Im also taking down dimensions while i have the engine on the intake. Sheet metal intake is in the works, but that will only get done when i get some more time. maybe over the winter.
