~5500.  Agreed.  The PG just isn't a good fit, especially with that high 1st gear.

I will tell you that Clevelands/Windsors/Clevors can make lots and lots and lots of power.   That 777 hp 434ci Clevor is not out of the ordinary. 

But I will also tell you the Clevelands/Windsors/Clevors don't have near the pedigree of a Ford FE.  Nor the nostalgia.  Nor the looks.

Not surprising, given the fact that, setting aside the Hemi, the Cleveland head is probably the best (vintage) OEM head ever designed for a performance engine. And while I think the FE is the best looking Ford engine, a well dressed Cleveland with a tunnel ram would tie for 2nd in my book, alongside a well dressed 2 or 3 carbed flathead. All great looking engines.

Nice stout build, Brent. What RPM was peak torque at? Assuming it was fairly high, he'd probably have better results with a well built 3 spd.

Definitely a few bugs to work out. The linelock if there is one either doesn't work or no brake pressure to the fronts. Not sure what convertor but that launches soft despite the RPM. Nice looking car. Looks like a few cool ones at that track. (Cecil County, Rising Sun Maryland)

A Clevor is a Windsor block with Cleveland heads.

I can see that. I can see how 8 could be lean being farther away but 2 and 6 is odd. No way lash is to tight in those cylinders right like a valve staying open.

You rarely agree with any of the "older" crowd on any FE forum.

Cheers.
