A TFS 1 or 2 would be fine. Get you some used TW heads or the new "fast as cast" ones for 1400 with the correct valve springs. You could build your own turbo kit for the car if you know how to. Its not hard. I just think it is dumb doing something twice. THAT is what will end up running you into...
I say aluminum flywheel. They have weights you can take off and change so you should never have to get another flywheel again unless you change to a different input shaft.
Why not just get a cheap OTS cam now that will give you more power? A cam is CHEAP! Don't be such a cheap ass. It will...
:nonono: Buy a Mr Gasket thermostat, boil it in water and make sure it works. Then install it. If the car still gets hot then replace the radiator, if it still gets hot replace the water pump, etc etc...work your way back.
Then go out and do a back to back comparison with real gauges and let us know if the stupid airdam works or not instead of crying about it. I can save you some time and tell you it doesn't though. The stock gauge isn't the greatest but mine is pretty accurate I'd say.
Oh and when you fill the radiator jack the front of the car up high. That will help get the air out of the system.
PS I still say the radiator could be at fault for the getting hot the faster you go. Sounds like it isn't flowing that well.
The air dam does not help at all, don't waste your time and money. Anyone that thinks so is retarded. I've had mine off for 2 years now and the car doesn't go past the N on Normal. This is on a high compression stroker and this was also on a turbo setup.
Nate he was telling me thanks for the help, he wasn't being sarcastic. I think my downpipe on my old turbo setup was 4" but it could have been 3.5". Either way bigger is better. I went to a dual 3" setup because again, bigger is better and I think a single exhaust on a V8 would look goofy and...
Save the money and put it towards bigger and better things man. Buying boost at this point would be wasting money!!!! Take that money and buy better heads, dart block, 351W block, etc...
You don't need it. I have a 331 like your but I'm sure I have more compression and my car doesn't go past the N in NORMAL on the gauge. After I cut the car off I can leave it for 10 mins and go back and the car is back cold.
Don't worry man, I usually make an ass out of myself before anyone else does. :rlaugh::rlaugh:
:nice: Let me know if you need help getting to your goals.
My car runs on pump gas and is fine on the street, this car is my daily driver. I'm building a 351W now and I plan on it making 600rwhp or more N/A with a hydr roller cam again.
Oh and my temp needles doesn't go past the N on NORMAL even in stop and go traffic close to 80 degrees. :D If the...
