I'm thoroughly disappointed.
Back when I put the engine together for my car about a year ago (before I came on here and really learned what a good set up was) I was flipping through Summit pages and stumbled upon the letter cams. Me and my dad both liked the B303 because it showed it started making power at 1500 RPM. I thought "awesome, I have a daily driver and this will be a good cam for low end torque", well today I was messing around on here and someone brought up the B303. I thought I would look up the specs again for sh its and giggles since I forgot it. Well when I went to Summits website and searched B303, I learned that I either read it wrong in the Summit mag a year ago, or Summit had a typo. Because the B303's advertised power range is 3000-6000 RPM.
I also went with the BBK SSI intake. Now this I did no research on when I put it on. A guy my dad knew was selling it off his '95 Cobra (he was going back to stock with the engine) it came with 70 MM throttle body, fuel rails, and 24 lb injectors all for $400. Couldn't pass it up. Since I found out the ACTUAL power range on my cam, figured I would search how the SSI does on a dyno. Found this http://www.mustang50magazine.com/techarticles/m5lp_0505_ssi_intake_manifold_dyno_test/viewall.html
So, basically I have a cam designed for over 3000 RPM and an intake that works good on the top end too. And all this is on a street car that I had planned to be a nice daily driver with a lot of low end torque. I didn't want a top end screamer.
Anybody have an idea on what this things driving habits are gonna be when I'm driving it in town?
I'm still waiting on it to come back from the damn body shop or I'd go out and drive it to see how it's gonna do.
