    stock gears?

    go with no less than 3.73...If I had to do it all over again I would definately go with 4.10...not much difference in driving rpms but a nice gain in performance...

    TFS 1" Intake spacer

    not to hijack the thread or anything...but why do some say that the 1" spacer hurts performance? I thought the whole purpose was to help not only with cooling but also with extending the runners to gain more low end...Does this apply to race cars since they nearly don't even stay long enough in...

    Vortech Superchargers on H/C/I engines...how much psi is lost or needed?

    Not at all..at 5-8psi...you are still safe...Those can handle 15-20psi...the A-Trim is virtually the same as SC-Trim...you will not hurt it...I've talked to the vortech engineers about this before...don't waste your money with the conversion...the only reason the S-trim is more than the SC-Trim...

    Vortech Superchargers on H/C/I engines...how much psi is lost or needed?

    Not sure what I want to do yet...I always wanted a set of AFR's with Ed's magic cam...He made me a cam for my GT-40X's and I love it but I know his speciality is AFR's...How do you like your set up? Is it torquey in the lower RPM's? I really don't want to get rid of the GT-40 iron heads since...

    Vortech Superchargers on H/C/I engines...how much psi is lost or needed?

    Actually the A-trim is the same thing or very similar to the SC-trim...I believe the A-trim is capable of 15psi-20psi of boost so you are not really hurting it...The SC-Trim is actually more efficiant since you can spin it at a higher impeller speed...I believe that is somewhere in the 53,000...

    Vortech Superchargers on H/C/I engines...how much psi is lost or needed?

    I need some input as in regareds to the loss of psi due to an engine equipt with heads cam and intake...I am putting a combo together and am not sure how much psi I will lose which is critical to the superchareger I choose...the combo consists of the following... CNC ported GT-40 iron heads...

    Is there such a thing as a "Factory Freak"?

    I got to toss in my $.02 again...As much as I want to believe the theory of factory freaks and the times people are running with stock castings...well in short it is more believable to me that bigfoot exists... :rolleyes: What I don't understand is how you guys are getting so much HP out of...

    Is there such a thing as a "Factory Freak"?

    All I can say is that if some of you guys really run what you claim...there is no need for aftermarket heads such as AFR's or TrickFlow's or FMS...:rolleyes:if you guys are hitting 12's on stock untouched heads than the more flowing expensive aluminum heads are not worth the money just to go a...

    Looking to change cams, need advice.

    if you have roller rockers on now you probably had to take the metal baffle out which is right under the oil spout...1.7 should fit...FMS makes a nice set for cheap...so does harland sharp...everything else should be comparable in price...My heads had been fully ported on the exhaust side with...

    Looking to change cams, need advice.

    Your intake is fine as long as you didn't touch the heads...an E-cam does not get the respect it deserves...one thing you can do is but some 1.7rr on there to raise the lift from .498 to about .528...if you want a different cam than the alphabet cams you may want to check out trickflwo stage 1...

    Is there such a thing as a "Factory Freak"?

    My bad...I misread your fist line as in regards to the heads...Listen I'm not trying to rain on your parade here...but the numbers from your combo seem to be way off...There is nothing special about your setup that need careful research...and or development...One thing that interests me is your...

    Another dreaded cold-air intake question.

    from what I know a CAI only creates turbulance when the air enters the intake...no cold air at all...sort of like the tornado effect or whatever the hell the spacer thing is...It's a wast of money...as far as Anderson's powerpipe...you need a bigger intake than just the stock intake to even...

    Will a stock block handle 600 hp?

    Ford Racing doesn't recommend anything past 400RWHP...on a stock block without effecting drivablity...so in real world 450RWHP anything above than you're playing with fire...

    My new combo--opinions please

    you need more injector...VERY soon...before you blow things up...lol. I would step up to a bigger intake like the Holley or the RPM II

    Is there such a thing as a "Factory Freak"?

    How much does your car weigh? I have a stripped down notch with more work than yours includind suspension running your times...I don't get it...could possible brake into 12's with a better driver and lower 60ft..I just can't drive like others but that doesn't mean that i suck...

    Is there such a thing as a "Factory Freak"?

    Well not exactly the ET's you mentioned with stock heads are they now...However, I still don't see how a pair of GT-40 iron heads right out of the box along with all your bolt ons make 272 RWHP...with the stock cam...Your setup is pretty much the same as a 93 Cobra minus the cam and the LT's and...
