    intakes. whats the best?

    I would vote for the Street Heat from Trick Flow if going new, best bang for buck IMO. If you can find a used intake.....shop around. I got my Street Heat for $320 shipped. If you can find a Explorer intake for cheap that would work and you could have some funds for other things like TB/EGR to...

    On my way to Dyno

    If you went in expecting to pull big numbers you might be let down. When I dynoed I was only expecting around 200rwhp. When 225hp and 298tq came up everybody that was there had open jaws. I was very happy with my results, you have the potential for more but the cam is probably holding you back...

    On my way to Dyno

    Don't forget quotes are rwhp, you need to subtract about 15% for drivetrain loss which 350fwhp=300rwhp. You can forget any hp from the ram air on the dyno, as for the rest of the number I would say your about 20% off on your hp numbers. 40hp heads ok, 25hp on intake....maybe 15-20, rockers hp...

    On my way to Dyno

    I would hope it's well more than 230-240. I'm at 225rwhp with stock H/C/I. I would expect around 260rwhp but I guess it would depend on what kind of dyno your using as well.

    Will scorpion 1.72's fit under stock valve covers?

    Are they stud mount or pedistal rockers? That should tell you if it fits the heads. And other than that they should fit the same as long as the baffles are gone, you could always run a little thicker valve cover gasket for extra clearence. I like the Moroso perm-aligns myslef. Just a quick...

    tremic VS. G-force

    I thought the big thing with the G-Force is weight, espically rotating weight. IT's supposed to be alot less which=more power to the ground. From what I've heard the shifter that come with the Tremec aren't that good. I will be putting in the TKO w/Pro 5.0 shifter next week if everything goes...

    Spanked a GTP tonight

    I was reading your thread on racing him and saw the results. The only thing that kinda got me was when you said "I didn't give it full throttle"? Did you not run it to peak power or just kinda feather the throttle? You should be able to beat him pretty good, espically if your running easy and...

    Spanked a GTP tonight

    But what I don't get is the let's say 96-97 Camaro and Firebird (which I have the Car and Driver shootout with the Cobra in there as well) ran something like 13.9 (camaro) and 14.1 (firebird) and which are both "CHEVY RATED" 300+ HP. I will get the exact specs tomorrow, it's at work. My 87 GT...

    Spanked a GTP tonight

    I understand where your coming from but in that era the 302 was spanking the Z28 with the 350's. If they had the same blower on the 3.8 Ford and Chevy would one have that much more over the other? And although the 00 N/A Cobra was way overpriced it did fine againts the Vette which is in the same...

    Spanked a GTP tonight

    Why waste your time with small engines anyways. Ford never really tried to make the 3.8 a high performance vehicle (the SC mentioned above). It's like taking a Civic now. Sure you can get them to go but how quick will it go and for how long. Look at what some of the V6 mustang guys are getting...

    Spanked a GTP tonight

    That's what I thought but after I got home I read the specs on the GTP Grand Prix and was quoted as 260hp s/c and 15.47 1/4. I was kinda happy regaurdless, I knew they have a rep of being fast but passed him easily.

    Spanked a GTP tonight

    Just for starters I don't promote street racing. I thought those were supposed to be fast. We did a stop light quickie (I was behind him and again there was no others around) he slowly took off then matted it, I was all over him. Then it went on the highway further down the raod from 50 to...

    Timing questions

    Like you said above...every car is different. 10-14 is pretty much the norm for a non-engine modded 5.0 regaurdless of octane. There might be a freak stocker that will run over 14 but most are 12-13 range.

    Timing questions

    If you bump the timing you have to run 93. Most stock 5.0's like between 10-14.
