Anyone know what the torque specs are for my flywheel? I had it written down and lost it...

Thanks in advance.

I think your going to be pretty dissapointed with those 400-450hp numbers. Even though carb combo's are peaky compared to EFI's, your still going to be probably 100-125hp shy, depends on what "tricks" have been done and accessories run.

Eh- I have a few tricks here and there We will see what it tunes out to be. Its faster than it was which is all that matters to me.

This winter I am going to build a stroker block which will have the goal of a procharger in the near future. *sigh* the never ending project

I don't mean to be a bastard, but if you make 450 hp on that I'll go kill myself. haha. My car makes around 480 flywheel hp (has a couple of issues I've been trying to figure out forever now) and it pushes about 14 psi on the vortech. I have a friend that had a very similar setup to mine with a smaller blower, procharger I believe, pushing 14 psi and he made 440-450 rwhp. That's with everything done, H/C/I/Blower/etc/etc on a 302 without a proper tune on either car. Anyway, I'm not trying to take you off your high, I guess just preparing you. But hey man, if you make 400-450hp on that combo, definitely more power to ya!! (And you also gotta let me know what your secrets are if you make that much)
