The cross-ram was dealer installed.
Would like to see dyno numbers.

Even the numbers from Super Chevy magazine's flawed 302/327/350 shoot out done recently (where they used incorrect parts in all of the builds) would seem to point out the RPM advantage of the 302, after 5800 RPM the 327 and 350 HP start to fall off while the 302 HP is still climbing and does not start to fall off until after 6800 RPM. And many other dyno runs by others have shown 302s still pulling strong with higher HP on into the 7500+ RPM range.
