Yep he knew that. We were texting back-and-forth when he ported a new 372 hiway big bore and it made less power than an OEM cylinder lol

Time to tickle the carb?

I may try 1 other carb. But prolly just sell it off and be done with it.

I tried, it runs, on to the next thing.

It means something different with the period in the middle though…

You mean like that period scene in Beyond the law?

Joe,

I am wondering about case volume mismatch. Have you considered adding some JB weld to the intake floor? Easily reversible and you have that awesome Dyno.

My bet is that the 272 cylinder can’t fill. Very tight cases need less intake duration.

Awesome thread. @Red97, you do super cool stuff.

Do you think an OEM cylinder would make a difference?

Joe,

I wonder how much affect the 359 case has on performance. Would more case volume be helpful?
Chainsaw Jim extended the transfer lowers on his down to the case feeds. That had to add a lot of case volume.

I’m working on a 359/272 hybrid and was considering going the other way: filling the 359 case feeds with epoxy. Not really because of volume, just because they create a dead space. But it does reduce case volume. Do you think that will be a mistake?

Have you run other 359 hybrids on the dyno?
