But then again is 120+ really that unrealistic especially with a 7:1 or 7.5:1 CR?
My 50 Merc with 6.8:1 or possibly even less will get my Mercury going down the highway between 85-90 MPH but meanwhile I used to have a 73 Torino with a 302 and it maxed out at around 85+ as well.
My 50 also has a factory visor but perhaps acts like a wing to make my Mercury fly😂.
There has to be a way other than steroids and quality oats to get my horses pull a bit harder and faster?
As Ol Ron mentioned about thinking outside the box, other than this I got newer goodies under my nose and don't know if they are that much of an advantage other than raising my compression and getting a new cam??
