    How to get my LX Vert into the 13's??

    4.10 gears, rear control arms, drag radials, then with some seat time you can hit 13's

    Anyone DD/frequently drive a Stroker setup? Input needed

    15 mpg should be no problem, and engine longevity should not be affected if built correctly. :nice:

    ok so when i was accumulating parts for my 331 build, i opted for this 28 oz stroker flywheel: ebay item 330399018432 from maddog racing (fastengineparts.com) when i was assembling the engine i noticed the dowel pin holes were too small for the oem pins, so i turned the factory pins down to fit...

    estimate my horsepower & torque (I love these threads)

    nice numbers, post up when you get it dyno'd. i'll start looking around for 30lbers. :(

    estimate my horsepower & torque (I love these threads)

    i see you have a similar setup, what are you putting down? also did you previously have 24 lbers, or go straight for the 30 lbers?

    estimate my horsepower & torque (I love these threads)

    i will definately get a better instake when the right deal comes along. i'm not convinced of the bigger injectors tho, i will be getting it dyno tuned later this spring and i guess i'll know then. anyone have any experience with the x cam? its been in my 67 since i built it-has only 1200 miles...

    Having a bad day

    i have also had those come out when removing the long stud. ford calls them thermactor plugs. after getting it out, i placed it in a vice and was able to remove the stud from the plug. then chase the threads in the head and on the plug. then reinstall the plug first, then the stud. :D

    Supercharger

    block is not the problem at 400hp level, but with too high compression + boost you're not going to be able to keep a headgasket. with that cr, i would forget the supercharger and focus on maximizing the rest of your combo. or, swap the pistons for dished ones and go the with the sc. :D

    ok, changing up my combo a little bit, here's the new mod list: 331 stroker engine, 10 to 1 compression gt40x aluminum heads x303 cam ported explorer upper and lower 24 lb injectors aeromotive adj fuel pressure reg 195 walbro fuel pump bbk longtube headers x pipe with flowmasters...

    how about this new combo?

    definately time for a different cam :nice:

    pulling an engine from a wreck what type of HP to expect?

    it has some nice parts, but i agree- the 19lb injectors are a giveaway that this is no where near 404 rwhp at least in current form. pull a valve cover and see if there are any part numbers cast into the heads-that would be a nice clue. :nice:

    thinking of a head and cam swap.

    ok so i talked myself into it. i took the gt40 heads off and will teardown my stroker in the morning. i'm still not sure if i'm gonna use the x cam tho. maybe someone will want to trade my x cam w/1200 miles for a less aggressive cam like the tfs 1 or e cam? :flag:
