Hey. Ive got a 428 in my highboy. Built it and put it in about 6 months or so ago. Its 40 over, 10.5:1 compression, ported heads, edelbrock rpm intake, and has a 770 carb on it. Just a hydraulic flat tappet. I get around 450hp from it. I could have gotten upwards of 600 but with a auto tranny and needing to tow that wasn't an option.
