I have a SM that I pull in stock 5500# class (stock meaning stock intake, exhaust, and stock rpm's). All I've changed on my SM is a larger ventura, hotter spark plugs, and I use leaded 110 octane fuel. It has M&W pistons in it from when my grandpa overhauled it many years ago. I've pulled against an M that is bored and stroked (in a "stock class") many times and have always beaten him. As far as weight, unless you plan to pull in a class less than 5000# it won't be a problem, just remove the belt pulley. As far as brakes go, I prefer the disc brakes for pulling because they are less sensitive. Plus, if you keep your front end down you shouldn't need them too often. If you have any questions just email me.
