75mm too much??

[95YellowGTbeasT]

Thinking about getting a 75mm tbody, i was wondering if it would be too much on my current setup?

You'll need to port match the inlet of the manifold to 75mm. If not, just use a 70mm. Is it "too much"? No. Will it make more than a 70mm? Yes, but nothing huge.

Is the Elbow 70mm wide too? I was lookin at getting a 75mm myself but it seems like it would be a bitch to port that thing

 

[95YellowGTbeasT]

i think 70mm is the opening on the elbow and the intake, someone correct me if im wrong.

What brand elbow? TFS elbow's are 75mm. Edelbrock intakes (performer, rpm and rpm2) are 70mm opening and will NEED porting to match 75mm TB.

I don't think it would be worth it to port the opening of the TB adapter on a 94/95 car. It would also be a pretty big PITA.

If you are staying with the SN-95 setup, and you have a 70mm TB adapter, go with a 70mm TB.

Your probably right, unless his adapter is 75mm like the TFS ones are.

 

[WhiteDevil]

oh the TFS ones are 75mm? I have an edelbrock one, maybe ill swtich that with the T-body.

You'd still have to port the inlet on the manifold. I dont think it'll be a cost effective mod, unless you can easily sell your old crap. You NEED longtubes. You have a similar set up as my friend and he's making 323hp/346tq and thats with gay shortys.

A 70mm is good to 650rwhp

 

[Grn92LX]

A 70mm is good to 650rwhp

But you'll make 655 with a 75mm

Not to agrue with ya eades, but there was a dude in this 94/95 section that gained 4hp OVER a 70mm TB on his bolt on car with stock heads cam, so saying a 70mm is good to 650hp isn't really correct. 70mm matches his inlet best and its fine. I'll be doing a 75mm on mine as recommended by ed curtis.
