RE: Paddle Shifters - Electronic Trans Controller

[Scott Parkhurst <ScottP@mcmullenargus.com>]

Beyond 455SD. Super-beefy 4-bolt bottom end. One will be running in IHRA Pro
Mod this year under the hood of Rodney Butlers '65 GTO. It's all-Poncho now
(if you wish to count the aftermarket block as a Pontiac. I do, since the
Chevy guys call Merlin blocks "Chevies"), and cranks out over 1,300hp. There
are other significant design upgrades to the block, including the
traditional weak point in the lifter galley area. Mine will be the first on
the street, as far as I know, and should make for some interesting road
racing.
