    1/4 Mile Issues

    \ stock block, crank, rods and a cheap set of windsor flattop hypereutectics. Cleveland 4v closed chamber heads (that we reused on the 410" motor) . 10:1 compression pump gas motor. an old restrictor single plane intake from the 80s that was easily the minimum cross section of the intake...

    1/4 Mile Issues

    you missed the point. I posted about how to choose a carb based on having the right size venturi for the application so you have the right amount of booster signal. and yes, a larger carb on an engine with lots of signal can help because it will slow down all that airspeed coming through the...

    1/4 Mile Issues

    its all about booster signal. that combo would probably run fine with a dominator, it has so much signal its crazy. if it were mine I would put a vic jr and a good 750 4150 like a quickfuel or AED and watch it go 11s. we had issues with three holley 4150s with a 10:1 358" Cleveland headed...

    Engine Stroking My 302 To A 347, General Questions.

    the problem is that it is too easy to make 500rwhp. i had a stock 302 shortblock with a top end and vortech that made 540 at the tires in '96. the issue is that a stock 302 block is a ticking time bomb at that level. and you can still use your pcm too. just have sct burn a chip for it. if you...

    Engine 351w Swap Question

    for this type of deal i would do a 347 over a stock 351w rebuild. block strength wont be an issue naturally aspirated and limited by gt40 upper. the 347 would be faster assuming the same top end ect.

    Engine Stroking My 302 To A 347, General Questions.

    a buddy and i built a nasty 347 that ran low 10s @ 132 on motor. it only made 388rwhp. high compression, a big solid roller, a decent sized set of heads. 7500+ shift point. it was an early 302 block with a scat 9000 crank. it has been together for 4 years and made enough $ to pay for itself, but...

    Best Upper And Lower Intake Manifold For Over 500 Hp

    N/A ? we made 490 rwhp SAE on a dynojet from a bone stock 93 cobra engine (except injectors) with an s trim. the lower had never been off the longblock. the TB had never been off the upper.

    Honing And\or Boring

    on the balance, if you are just wanting to rering the bobweight wont change enough to have to touch the balance. however, if you are going to run a completely new rotator it would be dumb not to balance it, and if you are going to go that far run a 28oz assembly. as far as the hone, cross hatch...

    Will Dome Toped Pistons Create Detonation Even With Large Combustion Chambers?

    a 5cc dome will put you at 10.3:1 with a 72cc chamber and .041 HG thickness at 0 deck. if domes caused detonation they woundnt be used in every big bore 14:1 engine that runs a 400 shot of nitrous, regardless of octane used. itll be fine. a smaller chamber and flat top would theoretically be...

    SN95 Looking For A 351w?

    if that's all you want than do a decent head/intake/cam setup 302. 330rwhp is very doable.

    SN95 Looking For A 351w?

    the problem with a stock block 347 is that they chatter the caps at high rpm and that will eventually kill the block.

    Spark Plugs. Which Do Y'all Like?

    when im tuning, champion because they go away if you look at them wrong. after the tune is figured out, autolite coppers because they are decent (since the motorcraft is just an autolite) and cheap enough to replace on a regular basis. and heat range depends on application.

    Oil Level

    a buddy of mine had this old 4.0 ranger that needed a fuel pump and a few other things. i didnt want to deal with it so i sent him to this shop i had been using for little stuff figuring surely they could handle it. that thing came back running like kaka. i was checking it out and decided to...

    SN95 Looking For A 351w?

    if you are going to go out and buy all new :poo: the windor swap wont be cheap. but if you know what you are doing and look around you can do it cheap. if you are comparing a no expense spared dart 8.2 deck build to a cheap overbore only windsor build, you are comparing two different animals. the...

    Oil Level

    foxes have a double sump oil pan. if you parked it on a downslope the front sump probably caught more oil than it normally does leaving the rear sump with less. my dipstick reads way over full with 5 qts in it because i didnt bother to adjust it properly, i was more concerned about not having a...

    Our 1st Cars

    a 289 2 barrel, 65 mustang coupe with a c4 and a one legger 2.79 8" rear end. it was a real rocket. I got it into the low 9s in the 1/8th mile before I got rid of it for faster pastures.
