Can you expand on this? When I told people back around 2005 that my 396 L78 (actually a standard bore 1972 402 block, built to L78 specs) made about 575Hp. People laughed and that it was BS. BUT when it went 10.40 thru the mufflers in a stock chassis 1969 Nova, with 9" slick, 4.56 and M21, they thought twice. I did run a home-ported 291 head, Holley Strip dominator intake and comp .660 solid roller.
