Cam Specs for my 357W Build

[mnsports]

I am building a 357W and I just got my Cam here are the specs:

Comp Cams

Gross Valve Lift: Intake-566 Exhaust-576

Duration @ 006 tappet Lift: Intake-281 Exhaust-289



I will be running 10.5 Comp and after talking with the guys at TEA I will be going with the TF/TW heads ported by TEA with the 205cc runners and the 2.02 valves. This thing is going to SCREAM on pumped gas......but just in case I'll have a 150 shot in the trunk...

What are you lookin at for N/A power?

 

[mnsports]

I should be in the 450ish HP area hopefully close to 500?. I will be using the Edelbrock Pro-Flo EFI unit.....I will be porting the intake on that too and be running big injectors and a cold air intake setup.

Good call with thous heads,same one I'm gonna be using.I talked to Brent @ TEA and he said I wil be over 500rwhp no problem.Im runing a 408 w/ 12:1 compresson and a Hyd. roller of .585/.604 254/261 @ .050 on a 112LSA.Of course,I got a shot too,and a big one at that (maybe hit a300-400hp shot)!

You know what these heads are really good for,dont you?

TURBO'S!

Actually,with the compresson I'm runing now (static) I would have to run alcohol if I wanted to boost .

 

[bluevenom867]

So what et are you shooting for, 9's?

 

[mnsports]

Ya...thats a lot of motor your running with that high comp....

I thought about getting a dart block and stroken it to a 427 but the cash was going to get out of hand....so I settled on a 357 with a shot....it's a daily driver and with the Pro-Flo system I can drive it across the USA and race at the same time... with a press of a couple buttons on the fly I can reprogram...

Hahaha...I wish. No I want to have a 10 second daily driver. My 92 Coupe will be flyin but I think most defently you are going to be "The One" with your setup.

Actualy,we would have been ruing the same set-up (except I would still be carbed),because originaly I was gonna run these heads on my old 357W shortblock,so I know how your sould run from what I was expecting.

!

Most dumb people think it a 302,so keep it quite and you will still have a sleeper.. .

I will be tucken it under my stock hood if everything works...... I will be using K-Member that lowers the engine 1 1/2"....

Hot damn,that will be awsome.
My motor just cleared a 2.5" cowl hood,but I run a Victor Jr.and had a BG Speed Demon w/ a 14" air cleaner on Energy Suspenson polymounts on a D&D k-member.
You might want to look into solid mounts,as my old motor actualy teared into the poly mounts.

 

[mnsports]

Ya I will be looking into that also because the solids will lower it about 1/2". The place I am getting my K-member is http://www.paracing.com

 

[bluevenom867]

Thats pretty nice k-member,I'll post a pic of my D&D in the car,ok?

I was going to get the D&D but they won't lower the K-member for me....but it is still a very good K-Member.

 

[bluevenom867]

Excuse the mess.
This was when we were first putting it in.It now has most cables/wires remover,manual brakes,and a Flaming River shaft.

 

[bluevenom867]

The only reason I got a D&D was because I got the whole front end kit (w/coil over springs) for $625 at a FFW or NMRA event (forget which; it was a year or two back).

 

[mnsports]

NICE.....Thats CLEAN..

My ebay is empty right now...I just got done welding up all the ten BIIILLIION holes that ford put in there.

 

[bluevenom867]

The car is faster with out the fenders,trust me ,I know from experiance .

J/k,about how long did it take you to do all that?

 

[mnsports]

I would say a good 8 hours...4 a side. I will be filling everything with ALL-METAL. Then sand it all and paint it. The outer fenders will get a type undercoating. Then it will be time to paint the whole car........JET BLACK and there will be NO BADGES. I am pretty sure I am going with Cobra R Gun Metal rims..9 up front and 10.5 in the rear?
