That's what people say but the ones that break the block are the ones revving them high. We're building this simular to the 302 in my Cobra and are going to keep the RPMS at no higher than 6000 and only 10 PSI of boost. I figure with the 331, a little larger heads and a better cam that that he will probably make somewhere around 470-480 at the wheels on pump gas and 510-520 rwhp on race fuel.

Even at that his car will be faster than my Cobra because it will have more power and is a little lighter.
