look my sign..... the tfs heads are ported something around 275cfm at .500 on the intake, lower to heads gaskets #1262, the lower gt-40 is port match,


to much flow maybe? and not anough velocity?


The car run great, running the stock #19 inj. at 56-58psi.

Can some #24 or #30 inj bring me some power? thks.

your cam is a little small but should move some air. i'd slap some 24# injectors on there.

56-58 PSI is a little much.....with 24# injectors i'd run around 36-38

on 19# injectors 56-58 sounds a little too much but if it runs fine, leave it be.

Seems you could use traction more than anything

i had a 155lph with 24s and made 361 RWHP.......i think i was getting close to max but the car ran great. you shouldn't have any problems unless you add a poweradder.

115 seems just a TAD too steep, closer to 112 would be my guess. But you should be getting 60's in the 1.6 zone, then you will see the mid/low 12's your combo should be running.

109 mph is still good for stock injectors especailly on motor. I'd say your doing pretty good so far, i'm sure if you wanted to you could get a better cam for the combo as well.

Engine Might have to get a Dart block but don't want to and if I do, then 363 instead of 331. Thoughts on what I've already bought so far.......
