Larger A/R's

Anyone run a larger A/R with a 250 CI Full stage motor?
Reason I ask,the extra cubes would move more air and the motor would have a soild roller so higher RPM. I want to move to a 88 but thought I would run the turbo I have for a while and play.
Cal ran a larger turbine or A/R on a 76 and didn't lose too much over his 88.

I think it should help. Dave Wicks' twin car is only 210" or so and the compressors are itty bitty..like 34 mm. However, he has at least P trim exhaust housings and shifts at 8800. It went 8.30@160 or so; seems to be working for him.

Kendall ,
When are you going to have yours running?
I've been rolling around twins.....
If I could get a deal on headers I'd be on my way.
From the maps small twins look like they would work great!

2007?

I am gonna have it ready for the Nats..of course, I won't specify which year. I really want it ready this year; I am low on $ after Christmas though and I have a lot of work to do. I hope to be at BG with it, ugly and interiorless, probably.
