ENGINE BUILDER SAYS i BETTER DO THIS!!

[Rick 91GT]

I would have a talk with him and tell him you've got reputable builders here telling you that the block doesn't have enough meat to be drilling the holes larger and see how he responds.

rixx93gt-you are doing the same set up as me. What kinda cam is that and is it emission's legal? what hp are you expecting outta that set-up? is that your stock block

I am expecting an e-mail from Ed to let me know what he has planned for the cam. I did specify to him I do have to pass the sniffer. I dont know if he gives you all the info as it is supposed to be "custom". I really have no idea what HP numbers I will have but a trip to a chassis dyno will be first on the list after I get it in. If anyone wants to guess the numbers for me I am game!
347 forged
10.25:1 comp
1.6 rollers
afr185 with spring upgrade
FTI custom cam
edelbrock RPM
24lb injectors
70mm accufab
76mm maf

By the way I did call and cancel the 1/2" head bolt conversion this morning. Hope everyone was right. Thanks for the help.

not that you asked my opinion on this - but the 24 pounders may be a touch on the small side. I would expect that combo, with a healthy cam and proper tuning, to be capable of 400 fwhp. If i am not mistaken, the 24lb stuff is safe up to around 360 hp. Just food for thought . . .

 

[perkys stang]

yeah.. I was going to mention.. Maybe atleast a 30lb injector and a 75mmTB if you haven't bought one yet...

Thing should make some sick power..

Anymore HP guesses?I was hoping for 375 FWHP, I would be satisfied with that.Man I hope the tax man has some good news for me, sure would make it easy to order those heads this week!

 

[88stangmangt]

yes i think me and u should be in the mid to mid high 300's to the wheels. makeing our cars able to run the lt1/ls1 in the ground.

 

[88stangmangt]

i havnt made it to the heads yet ;-( i am just bout to order my stroker kit for dnd and my main support girdle/windage tray from d.s.s.

 

[jdallen1798]

check my sig pretty similar setup but i have the tfsr intake and11;1 compression and edelbrock 6037 heads upgraded springs 2.02 heads,and custom chip.i dynoed at 341 rwhp.i think with a custom cam and some port work on the heads i would be around 390 at the wheels.i do experience some detonation with this setup even with 10 degree base timing and 92 octane with outlaw octane boost.

Sounds just like mine. I was hoping for 360rwhp and 375rwtq. Told Ed my car is my daily, keeping AC and all that crap, pass CA emissions....Should be nice and torquey.
