    347, 9.6:1, 5-6lbs boost, stock block

    I was told i'd be about 9.6:1 with dish top, 11:1 with flat top...Never really considered dome top...

    347, 9.6:1, 5-6lbs boost, stock block

    Is there a general consensus of what the rwhp a stock block will take? I've heard 400rwhp - 450rwhp? Another general question, if i decided to add a supercharger, how much could i lower the compression by going with a larger head gasket?

    347, 9.6:1, 5-6lbs boost, stock block

    If my stroked 302 combo ends up around 320-350 rwhp, i'd like to be able to add a little boost (5-6 lbs.) to up the hp to around 400-420rwhp... My 347 is being assembled in a stock block, and the compression ratio with my AFR 185's (611cc combustion chamber) and dish top pistons is going to...

    Predict Cam Characteristics...

    Exactly - 347e is their smog legal stroker... I'm using this as a starting point to try to determine how much bigger i can go and still be smog legal...Any ideas?

    Predict Cam Characteristics...

    0.510/0.534 222/223 @ 0.50" 112 lobe sep How would this cam act in a N/A 347 with AFR 185's in terms of: 1. Idle 2. Performance 3. Emissions Thanks in advance...

    347 + Kenne Bell = stock block?

    Are the 42lb injectors overkill with me running 8psi from either unit? Would i be ok with 30lb'ers?

    347 + Kenne Bell = stock block?

    Good stuff... I was thinking about using Swanson Performace down in Torrance, CA for the tune... I think I'll try the 306 and 8lbs from a 2.2L...I don't drive particularly hard (sure, i say that now :)) and it'll probably never see the track...Of course that's not a safeguard to cracking...

    347 + Kenne Bell = stock block?

    So a 306 with the 185cc AFR's, a moderately agressive cam, and the 1.5L KB at 8psi is doable and should put me around 400rwhp? If i opted to run the Blowzilla at 8psi would the block allow me to run more boost with the same combo if i wanted to upgrade in the future? You guys have been...

    347 + Kenne Bell = stock block?

    I would love to be in somewhere around 450 to 500 rwhp, still be able to pass the sniffer every other year, be a daily driver, and run on 91 octane...(realistic?)... I'd prefer to go with the Kenne Bell - i've had turbos in the past and couldn't stand the lag and centrifugals lag the same way...

    347 + Kenne Bell = stock block?

    This is in fact one of the reasons i'm looking for a short block... So what motor would be ideal to compliment the 1.5L KB? Could I do a 331?

    347 + Kenne Bell = stock block?

    Ahhh...Good point...I'd never considered that before...Make perfect sense though... So i guess my options are to (a) build a 302/306, which shouldn't have the same problem getting fed by the smaller blower or (b) Would i experience the same problem with a 331 that i would the 347...

    347 + Kenne Bell = stock block?

    So can anybody give me other viable options to the 347 with the KB? Would a 331 be able to hold the hp it would create with the KB? What about 6psi vs. 8psi on the KB on the 331 or 347? An empty DART block sells for almost as much as the CHP 347 short block and is rated above 1000hp...I know...

    347 + Kenne Bell = stock block?

    You know, I'm not sure - it's never happened to anyone in my click, though we're probably not who it was intended for...I've heard about it too but i'm pretty sure that's an attempt to cut down on the back-alley rice burners who gather at the 'street races' spots and act up... We're more of...

    347 + Kenne Bell = stock block?

    And it's not that i'm trying to run 12-14psi, i'm trying to figure out how close the a stock blocks capacity i would be at with 8psi on my combo....

    347 + Kenne Bell = stock block?

    I actually opted for the 8psi pulley, but KB boost ratings are considered with a stock TB and MAF...By increasing air flow, you also increase boost...At least that's my understanding - though i've never had it bolted on and guaged before...Maybe Daggar can chime in on that as well...

    347 + Kenne Bell = stock block?

    Hey Daggar...I was hoping you'd chime in...You seem to be the resident authority on KB's here at Stangnet... I already have the parts listed above, none installed...I didn't want to have them dropped into my daily driver only to blow the bottom end and be stuck paying for a rental...I...

    347 + Kenne Bell = stock block?

    Me and my 90GT are in Cali and need to stay emissions legal, so I'm looking at CHP's 347e stroker short block with Probe cam (0.510/0.534, 222/223) to go with my: AFR 185's GT40 lower intake 70mm throttle body 80mm MAF Moroso fender well intake 42lb injectors, etc. & Kenne Bell 1.5L @...

    Dome light/Electrical Question...

    Can anyone confirm or deny for me that fuse 8 will kill the dome light in my '90? Or that simply pullling the bulb will do the trick? Anyone with a '90 got their owner's manual handy?
