    95 5.0 Gt40p Hci Build

    any update? i'm rooting for you, but i have to say that getting 300 horses to the ground with stock ported heads and intake, (even thumper's gt40ps) has been VERY elusive for folks. over the years i have followed many builds similar to yours, and most of them seem to top out in the 280-290...

    Finally Time To Dyno Tune The New Engine Combo!!!!

    please believe me when i say i hope you are right! :cheers: my only reservations are that it is 351 cubes and the compression, while higher than stock, is lower than most engines that are built for high NA performance. :shrug: those 2 things might hold it back a little. sorry, i'll stop :dead:

    Finally Time To Dyno Tune The New Engine Combo!!!!

    oh yeah, as i said in my first post, "that thing is going to freaking scream" but my guess is that the max torque will be around 410 at 4500 rpm my other guess is that the max horsepower will be at ~385 at about 5500 rpm you wanted guesses, right?

    Finally Time To Dyno Tune The New Engine Combo!!!!

    understood, but as i'm sure you know, 9.7:1 is still pretty low for a high performance naturally aspirated engine. venom, are you planning on boosting it, trying to keep fuel costs down by being able to (maybe) run low octane gas, or something else?

    Finally Time To Dyno Tune The New Engine Combo!!!!

    the compression will hold it back a little, but that thing is going to freaking scream. my guess: 385 horses at the wheels, 410 torque around 4500 rpm i hope you have 42# injectors. you are gonna need them.

    The 410 Is Sold.

    I got the last payment on Saturday. My friend brought over his hoist today. Now I have to get it out of the car. I have never pulled an engine before. If it is too much for me to handle, I have a couple of mechanics I trust who can do it for me. Anyone want to buy a 95 black convertible roller?

    Power distribution block

    hissin, it is made of maple which (as i'm sure you already know) is one of the hardest and strongest woods around, and it is not under any torsional pressure or anything, so i doubt very much that it will split. do you know what cars have a remote positive battery lug? the next time i'm at the...

    Lets discuss stall speed Calling all AOD guys

    The stall speed is the RPM when the torque converter stops "slipping". So with a 2400 stall TC, if you have it in gear and the break pedal jammed to the floor, when it hits 2400 rpm (or thereabout), either the engine will stall or the rear breaks will give way and you will start smoking the...

    Garage workshop setup

    I built a new base for my bench. It is 4 sections of 1x4 pine, so it is very light and inexpensive. I designed it so it could easily be taken apart and moved or transported and then be put back together quickly. It is also the same height as the table saw and carts, so I can extend larger pieces...

    Garage workshop setup
