    331 With turbo runs hot

    I do have a huge aluminum radiator and looks really clean inside. I have heard that stock pumps dont last well with high rpm. My intercooler is laid out flat under the radiator and whoever put the turbo kit in used the air diverter to form like a wall around the back of the ic to make like a...

    Dude were like twins. 1990 Black LX Dart 331 and mine has a 76mm Turbonetics. I havent had mine tuned yet but still ran 11.2 @ 121 on 9psi. I love my Turbo so much fun. Driving on street tires is a joke.

    The injectors are 55lbs and the pump is 500lph. And the plug by the dist needs to be out when i time it correct? And also any ideas on a/f mix? I dont have a guage yet but will get one in the next week yes it will be wideband:D

    Timing

    So at the risk of sounding like an idiot I thought FMU meant fuel management unit and i figured that is what the accel box is. Believe me I am getting an education with this car:D

    Timing

    I have a 76mm turbo on a 331. I have my timing set at 28 total Timing. I have been hearing that turbo motors need even less timing than that. It is running a little hot still maybe just a hint of pings much better than when it was at 32deg. Any help or opinions are appreciated.

    Fuel pressure help

    AS far as getting it tuned i am having trouble finding someone to do it around Portland. It has an Excell Calmap fmu. The pump i think is 500lph. It does run a little crappy at idle and better when on the throttle. I do need to get an a/f gauge hopefully next week. At total timming its set at...

    Fuel pressure help

    I just got my new motor running and am working all the bugs out. It is a dart 331 with 76mm turbo 55lb injectors. I turned the pressure up from 30 to 40. I am just wondering if its enough. There is no cats on it and i feel that the exhaust should smell a little richer of fuel. Any opinions?

    Your location says tri-cities im guessing in Washinton. You should call AD Performance in the seattle area. He has stroker kits on the shelf. I think the last time i looked forged kits were around 1300.00. I bought an assembled Dart SHP shortblock with forged internals recently and was about...

    Block suggestions

    +1 What Rick said. I am waiting for mine right now. 331 with Forged internals. Bare block was about 1700.00. You can get the big bore block for about the same price has a 4.125 bore. You will end up with a 363 i think.
