396 sbc?

[stock car driver]

no idea i had every gear when i ran stock car from 486-714, I usually race 10-15 tracks a year.

if those are the only rules, then a 434 it would be. Build as big as you can with a 2 bbl

Thats the rules, i have a 377 with a 6.83 gear now, turn about 7200 to 7400 on a heavy track and between 6500 to 6800 when it slicks off so i figured with more cubic inch, i may be able to drop down to like a 6.20 and keep it under 6500 when the track is tacky fast. I also run a 1/4 mile little clay oval and turn the 377 around 6600 to 6800 at most when it is tacky fast..but either way i go in the future, thanks for all the info from everyone, it has been most helpfull!!!

We have to run a stock block. The correct 400 sbc block is hard to find. The 396 combo sounds like the next best thing. Agree, great info on the big cubic inches and 500 cfm 2 barrels!!!
