You know what one of the best things about StangNet is?
NO POSI VS STEIG BULL****!
Let's keep it that way
If you are serious and not just trying to start **** OP, use Google to find the lame drama filled threads, here is a hint they are NOT HERE.
I dealt with them a few years back when I had my eaton ported. Myself I didn't have any issues with them and had good custmer service
Sorry man I thought you were one of those douchebags from SVTP trying to bring their drama about Steig and Posi over here. Its already infected Modular Fords and it just a bunch of stupid drama.I don't come on here to start ****. I have a full time job, a family, and go to graduate school at night.

My apologies...
Either way once you get past a stock Eaton you will need supporting mods. You will basically be out of pump, injectors and MAF. So with either a port or twin screw you will need these mods.My problem is coming up with $3400 for a twin screw alone, before supporting top end mods. I know "you gotta pay to play," but funds are limited as usual, and I'm just exploring all options.
Still open to any and all info/experiences...

With that being said I have installed a few Posi Ports and they have all made great numbers. Better than the Steg ports I have seen around Dallas.
I would suggest running a port and get all the supporting fuel mods for the twin screw then when you want to make more power, sell the port and get the Whipple.
BTW: Tousley Ford sells the Whipple 2.3's for $3109 shipped.
Yes.Thanks for the info!
So, let's say I set a power goal with a (future) twin screw of 600/600. Is that kind of power achievable with a Whipple?
I would go with 80# FRPP Injectors and just buy a Diablosport MAFIa. The 80# injectors will give you room to grow and run just like stock even with a stock Eaton. They are around $385 from Tousley Ford so about the same as 60's. The MAFIa can be set and increased as needed.What size injectors and MAF will give me room to grow?
It depends on if you want to stay returnless or go with a return style system. I chose to stay with the returnless system and went with the following. Fore Fuel Hat, Twin GT Pumps, Dual FPDM's w/ wire upgrade, -8 line to the rails and a 40 AMP BAP. (I only added the BAP when I went to E85 as it requires more fuel. If you run 93 Octane you will not need it.)What fuel pump set up is recommended?
The pistons are not really the weak link. There are plenty of people pushing 800-1000 RWHP or more on stock blocks. So your goals will not even come close to harming it. I am running @ 700 RWHP now with no issues.I have been told that the bottom end of the Cobra is good for a huge amount of power, with the pistons being the weak link that gives up the ghost before the rest of the internals. Would replacing the pistons give me some peace of mind at higher power levels if I wanted to crank the boost up? Am I correct in assuming the pistons are the weak link? What power level is the rest of the bottom end good to with a good tune? Thanks for the help!
I understand. I came from the 302 world myself and everything was new to me. I used to go by 89sleeper on here many years ago and switched my screen name.Thanks! All great info! I may be picking your brain a bit in the future, if you don't mind. Do the stock valvetrain components need to be upgraded with that large of a power increase? Do these cars benefit from upgraded cams? I've considered having custom blower cams ground when I do the Whipple swap. Forgive my ignorance with these cars. I'm used to the fox body pushrod 302 world, where you have to replace basically the entire car if you intend on making any real power. In that mindset, 800-1000 horsepower on a stock valvetrain is completely impossible...

Cams really do not pick up much on these cars. They are costly because there are 4 of them and you have to replace all the springs as well. Unless you like the sound of cams it is really not worth it in my book.
The stock valvetrain is fine and will make plenty of power. The only time I ever took my valve covers off was to have them powdercoated.
You can pick my brain any time you would like. I am always willing to help.
