No stock duration. Valve springs are stock appearing but way stronger, the clutches are about $3,000 along with the headers and the Jerico 4 speeds are around $4,000. Rocker arms, crank, rods, carb etc are not slowing it down. The intake may take a few hp away but not much. I believe??? they all acid port the heads because everybody does so who cares. Also the ignition is much better. Ask Jerry what his compression ratio is. I bet it is not 11 to 1. Yes, all in all a very fast motor and car but not as stock as the average Joe thinks. Stock eliminator has come a long way and so has the research and development. Look how fast the 350/255 horse camaros and novas are. In the 10's with a Q-jet, cast iron intake and a mush lifter cam! Thats moving! Jerry is running down Atco this weekend I think. If the air is good and he can get hooked I am hoping to hear that he ran in the 10.60's or maybe in the high 50's.
