[Jim Gray]

When Bob Glidden was winning all those NHRA Pro Stock titles he was running a 331 ci Cleveland, or something close to that.

<<<And I know this may sound crazy to some of you but has anyone heardof destroking a cleveland to  get a higher revving engine ( large bore shortstroke ) 8000 or 9000 rev's like the boss 302 that was used in the Trans Am.>>>

I think Brian LeRose destroked his 351C to a 302 for his Bonneville run. He currently holds a B-class record I think at 209+mph. Search the archives for more info.

Cheers!
