^ That is personally too much hood for me. Looks like it would take 800rwhp to back that hood up.

Ok, this is what I needed! I posted a problem with the victor and you solved it for me.
Next up, where is the best place to pick this intake up at? Summit seems to be high on their prices all of the sudden.
how does this help anything?You have alot to learn. I see you getting in over your head very quickly.
seems to me, that is why he is askingMan you don't know what you want to do. You need to sit down and think this through so you don't end up doing things twice or three times. Forget what anyone says on here (including myself) and you need to get in contact with Jay Allen or Ed whatever his last name is and see what they suggest and get a cam by either of them. Jay is an ******* and I don't like him but if I were you I'd go with him over Ed.
holy crap, talk about going too big ... a 90mm accufab flows more than mike's 418 can take. that does not at all fit the rest of mark's combo, or his budget.With that said go with a Victor Jr EFI setup with a 90mm Edelbrock elbow and a 90mm Accufab TB. But what do I know, my car is slow for what it is.
i have put it into words more than a few times. but that has nothing to do with this thread, does it?No, I cannot put into words how restrictive that intake is on your car.
i'll make a prediction ... mark will get this 351 in his car and on the road before you finish yours.

sorry, i don't know why, but i thought you were building a 351 based combo. i guess i was wrong about thatBefore I finish what? I'll make a prediction...I bet his 351 makes 100rwhp LESS than my 302 based stroker does.
yep, that's exactly what i am saying. don't believe me? maybe you should read this:You're telling me that a 90mm TB flows more than a 419cid motor needs?
i don't know him personally ... his name is in his sig. i think it is a courtesy to address him by name.I can now see why you know the OPer personally.
what part of "this is not a performance build" are you failing to understand?You two are a prime example of how stock LS1 owners think 351 cars are slow. Learn how to design a combination that will go fast and let me know when you do.
sorry, i don't know about the p/v clearance thing. about the springs, i'd get ones that trick flow recommends for the camThanks Chris, I appreciate you looking at it from my point of view. I just need a fresh start because my engine is tired. I drove it just a few minutes ago. I has descent power still and doesn't smoke, but you can just feel it, I've been driving these things long enough to where I can feel the difference between a tight motor and a tired motor.
So I'll just order up the Typhoon and use that for now. And I'll look into the TFS stage 2 cam(any P/V clearance issues?). Since my setup won't have alot of high rpm power, maybe I can omit the valve springs for the time being and use the stock stuff. What do you guys think? Not a good area to skimp maybe??

1st a 90mm TB is not overkill. It is only a valve to let air into the motor. I'm not going to sit here and try to explain to you why it would be a good choice on a 351 setup. The numbers my 331 (with a 90mm TB) speaks for me.
And if this is not a performance build then go get a damn 302 and throw the GT40stuff on it! It will be alot easier in the long run. If he is asking such basic questions I will hate to see what will happen when he meets something in the swap that doesn't just drop in.
On the other hand, I do have a very clean Explorer engine sitting in my shop, maybe I should install that for now with all the goodies I already have, then build a big windsor for the future.. hmmmmm... I hate these freaking cars sometimes!
That would be my suggestion. Limit the down time and have the 351, (408W or whatever you plan on doing to it) ready to go when you're financially able to afford the complete drop. Who knows...you might even change your mind again in the mean time?On the other hand, I do have a very clean Explorer engine sitting in my shop, maybe I should install that for now with all the goodies I already have, then build a big windsor for the future.. hmmmmm...
