Vortecpro - Where Are You??
 

Hello folks,

Is this member (Vortecpro) still around? Does anybody know him?

If so, can you please let him know there are a few members that are trying to get in touch with him regarding a 396/350 HP engine he sold this month.

Paul

He hangs out on the Team Chevelle site.

Thanks Steve,

Would you know if he uses the same member name?

Thank you guys for all the work.

I will try and track him down on those two sites. There are a few folks that just want ask him about that 396/350 HP engine build.

What can I do for you?

I originally bought the engine and trans out of a D/SA Nova, I wanted the trans, and sold the engine to recoup my money, after the engine was delivered to me I noticed the block was filled, so the person who bought it will be getting their deposit back. I now have a NHRA D/SA 396, trust me it's nothing special, but its seems it was recently freshened up, but the heads are a disgrace, after inspection so they will be redone. Dyno sheets supplied with the engine showed 441 HP, which produced 11.20s ETs @ 3450 pounds, room for lots of improvement. After I go through the heads and dyno test the engine its will be for sale again as a NHRA D/SA 350 HP 396.

Engine was built to stock 1968 350 396 specs, although cam duration was 254 @ .050 hyd flat tappet, 460/480 lift. Factory intake with Q-Jet.

Thankyou.

I won't bug you with too many questions:

1. What head casting were you using (063 or 290)?
2. What was the compression ratio?
