    Anyone have the Trickflow H/C/I combo?

    no, i meant on naturally aspirated strokers. I should have been more specific, but since he and I are both naturally aspirated, I thought he would know what I meant. I meant specifically for that extra power, why did he run a 2 over a 3, and it sounds like he understood, but still i should...

    my under drive pully rubs on my new 160amp alt is there anything i can do?

    I just did my 3g alt upgrade 2 weeks ago and the vice president of my car club, who is a ford tech, said that the old u.d pulley would not work, so make sure you got the new pulley with the alt. now i have heard that it has worked for some and that it hasnt for some. i just stuck with the...

    Anyone have the Trickflow H/C/I combo?

    I have a friend who has the stage 1 cam and it doesnt sound very lopey to me. I guess maybe because I have the stage 3! lol mcvey90, just curious why you went with the stage 2 instead of the stage 3? I never even considered the stage 2. The vice president in my car club is also a ford...

    New Dyno Numbers... Does this sound right

    you actually ran the car or was that a gtech rating? the time doesnt quite look like it matches the speed to me. time looks quick, but speed looks low :shrug: your dyno numbers seem quite high to me also. yes I am jealous but still they dont look right.

    5.0 internals and combo

    i have an old article in one of the magazines and both that article plus the one you have attached are carb'd which does in fact make more power usually. honestly I am surprised nobody else has posted on here but me, but lets wait and see what others have to say on the subject. Alot of...

    5.0 internals and combo

    oh no doubt he knows his stuff but a cam will only do so much for you. on a stock bottom end 302 you will have to rev that thing far more than it will accept to see those numbers but good luck.

    Does 331 stroker block need notching

    nope, only 90-93.........so to answer your question, piece by piece! lol the hardest part was to find the manual door panels.

    5.0 internals and combo

    not to burst your bubble but that combo wont be good for 420 n/a hp on a little 302. my 331 is making just under that (about 410) and I am running about 10.2:1 compression, yours is only 9:1 I am thinking you are about 30-40hp off.

    How much Horsepower/Torque?

    unless he is planning on nitrous or more down the road, 24's are plenty.

    v6 stangs

    as was mentioned above. my buddy has a 2004 v6 and since insurance would have been outrageous because he was involved in a hydroplaning incident which totalled his last car, he couldnt get the gt like he wanted. Instead he is doing a gt hood, rear bumper, dual exhaust, bulitt wheels and a...

    How much Horsepower/Torque?

    honestly, i wouldnt do the gears myself either. as for having to rebuild the rear, i wouldnt worry about it but your trac loc probably needs rebuilding. when they do the gears just have them rebuild it while they are there, the rebuild kit is only like 40.00. as for extra hp and tq, i didnt...

    How much Horsepower/Torque?

    no way you are making 360/385. I would seriously guess you are running about 310-320hp at the fly. dont forget when you get it dyno'd you will put down a little less power because of your auto tranny than if you had a 5 speed, so dont be discouraged.

    I totally agree with you nick. it is a tech forum and where we come for help but people will always have opinions and ideas that others will not always agree with. either way, I hope he gets it done too. :cheers:

    neon interior light help

    let me first start by saying that i hope you get it done. next let me just say that like 90mustanggt, the first thing I thought was "why" and then I thought "he should ask an import forum" lol I think something like that that isnt the norm for us stangers is usually looked at like a...

    is there any power to be gained by bypassing the smog pump?

    it is a big lopey cam, and sounds great. I think a custom would give me better low end power and be better through out the band but i like it alot. when i can afford a custom ill give ed curtis a call, until then though it runs good on my 331. it would be too much for smaller applications...

    is there any power to be gained by bypassing the smog pump?

    i am not sure how many hp you would pick up but if you arent using it, bypass it and take it off, along with the other smog stuff and save some weight. mine is bypassed with a short belt, and though we did several different dyno sessions that day, even before and after the bypassing of the...
