my gt-40 combo made 290/330 to the wheels with the a/f ratio in the 12.2's and the car overheated and puked every run...pop'd HG.

That was with mild port work with 1.94/1.60's iron gt-40's, AFM b-21 cam, Explorer intake with port matched lower, BBK longtubes, 65mm TB, 73mm MAF, 24lb injectors.

I have since installed an electric fan, Aluminum d/s, and synthetic fluids.

i'm having trouble believing this article http://www.carcraft.com/techarticles/116_0307_ford/index.html

sounds too good to be true?! i wish they would have done a test with the EFI and not a damn carb. they got 23 hp out of new rockers...thats phenominal. and 104 hp with heads and headers....on a stock bottom end.

I'd also love to know... Ive got a set of bare GT-40Ps waiting here to send to the right porter And Ive got the rest of the mods in that buildup other than the HI-6 and the N-41 (which can be easily attained for the right combo).

Mine is 11.25:1, dont mean to flame you but I dont see that power in you're parts. Especially with stock 5.0 headers and small exhaust with that intake, carb, and cam

Saltymaz... Your calling BS on other people's HP estimate's and then you go and say you have 408RWHP out of that mild 351 of your's. I'll eat my short's if you even come close to 400 Flywheel HP. From what I can see in your "My Garage" pics that engine of your's look's like you pulled it out of a junkyard and yet you claim it's a crate engine. I imagine you have factory piston's in her as well.... well correct me if I'm wrong but I can't see you getting 11:1 Compression out of her with a 61cc (Twisted Wedge) head on top with factory piston's unless you had the heads milled. (If those are actually Trick Flow's On That Engine Like You Claim) ??????? I think your the one that everyone should LOL at.

I got almost the same combo as saltymaz.
I got more stuff done to the heads/intake/carb/and exhaust than he does and I think i'm somewere in the 400rwhp/425rwtq power.Saltymaz do you have track time? I don't have a qaurter near me but would be nice to know.I run a C4 instead of a 5speed though.

Ok, Saltymaz... Your carb is on BACKWARDS... And jsut to let you know.. A Holley blue is to be gravity fed or you'll burn it up... Yet you put it in the engine bay. LMAO.. Is your hood a gas tank too? Also.. With the regulator that comes with the Holley blue... You should use both out ports on a double pumper... You have no idea what you're saying/doing... I call BS on this shmuck.
