From camaros.netracer1320 from over at Team Chevelle came up with the term for his great midrange torque producing engine that has put his porky Chevelle in the mid 10's!
It is Ed "Begley's Special Engine", aka, BSE!
Ed is a controversial guy that no longer chimes in b/c of all the B/S that went along with it.
He advocates closed chambered big valve oval port heads and midrange cams used for producing a lotta torque in the midrange and upper midrange to move the heavier Chevelles.
Ed's combination is hear or at least one of his b/c he is always tweeking it for more power and the same with his car, for more traction.
Do a search if you want to come up to speed both here and over at Team Chevelle.
Oh, by the way, I am a fan b/c I built my great big "tow-truck", 496 engine like his but a lot milder!!! Like 551hp at 5500rpm and 579t at 34500rpm sorta thing. At least per D2K...
