    Edelbrock Intake Help?

    hey just wondering what mods youve done,I heard 75mm tb might be a waste on a stock heads, a recent mag article tested 65,70 and 75mm and thier dyno numbers showed little to no increase in hp with any thing bigger then 65mm.Just my 2 cents.

    New Dyno Numbers with AFR heads

    Nice numbers!Your set up is similar to mine give or take a few items,I hope to get a dyno session in next month,to see what the afrs and the #19 cam added on. Do you have Secret Service's phone #? I never heard of them before.What did the 3 pulls cost? :nice:

    extender,chip,or both?

    judging by the response, I guess that was a dumb question. Im just trying to figure out what an extender has to offer as opposed to a complete dyno tune with say an autologic chip.

    extender,chip,or both?

    can an extender and a chip be used together?or does a custom chip do the same thing as an extender? :shrug:

    well the manifold is painted....letting it dry overnight....

    I been thinking of doing the same thing, what kind of paint did you use? I wanted to coat the upper intake to keep it a cooler.What did you sand/clean it up with first?

    will a Tremec 3550 change acceleration?

    will a Tremec 3550 change acceleration?

    I brought the car with the tremec, so I dont know how it felt to drive it with the t-5, but when I take off from a stop light etc. first gears gone in the blink of an eye, I sometimes wonder if the shop I had the gears installed at threw in some 4:10s instead of 3:73s.I had a little fun on the...

    gt-40 or typhoon intake

    I wasn't impressed by the casting either, and the mac elbow adapter looks like a hunk of concrete, I had to clean that up quite a bit also. We get what we pay for I guess.One typhoon intke soon to be for sale. :rolleyes:

    gt-40 or typhoon intake

    I thought about that too, but will the eddy performer fit the typhoon lower? I know they are supposed to be identical, but in a recent mag article the guys at pro. products said their manifold flows better because of "strict port placement".I guess it'd be safer to get some measurements?But the...

    gt-40 or typhoon intake

    I havent been to the track as often as Id like and most of my cruising is in the idle to 5500 rpm or so. Im thinking about the gt-40 intake cause I been reading about how great it is as far as its torque production is concrned, I can rev it real good from 3000 rpm on up, but Id like a bit more...

    Heads Up BBK TB users

    yeah, on page 55 of 5.0 magazine it says they're using "Magnetti Marelli" throttle bodies now.has any one heard about drilling the 1/4 " hole in the t.b to help with idle issues? I did that ,did'nt help, so I was stuck with a 1/4 " hole I did'nt need in the t.b, what did I do? I had to plug it...

    Heads Up BBK TB users

    I heard that was a reason why edelbrock went with a different throttle body company,not sure though it would stand to reason.

    egr-to delete or not

    Im curios as to how deleting the egr has ,or has not improved performanceon some your combos.I blocked it off at the tube and elbow, but otherwise left it all connected, so no check engine light comes on, and I get a slight rattle at part throttle ,timing is at 14. Anybody else play around with...
