I will choose from the Big 3-U.S. automakers: Personally I have seen all three dyno at 420-H.P. if equipped correctly, but we saw, a 351-Ford Mill produce 635-Horse, but there maybe a Chevy or a Dodge Mill that can do the same.

Chevrolet 350-V8

They all can but the Chevy is the easiest one to extract power from.

I am a vendor to Edelbrock which has all the equipment to really know! The Windsor rules! You guys might be stunned at what an old 4 banger Offy puts out with no turbo or super..... ;-)

in Our experience, we too think the windsor is the one which would produce more horse and torque, with the right internals and proper fuel system

I was there at KCIR once in 1989 I work for Ozark Automotive Creations, a restore and Kit Car facility.. We take our bracket cars to Ozark Raceway Park or Topeka and St. Louis.

This is my area of expertise.

What are the limits? I chose Chevy 350 based on the wide array of cylinder head choices that I can make. The Ford 351W would be close and the Dodge 360 third.
