It would be nice if we had a section here on the forum where everyone could list their mods and dyno numbers. I know there is a search tool, but a dedicated thread or something would be sweet. It could only work if members would share.

There are dozens and dozens maybe even a hundred threads on what people have achieved with various combinations but you do have to use the search function.

On my 95 3.07 auto with just the LT4 hot cam kit and stainless works LT headers & RT cats........and a tune, I increased my RWHP on a mustang dyno by 50. This was done when the engine had 70K on it.

What you have described is very close to what Lloyd Elliot and I talked about, a few years back. At the time, we were talking about 425 net chp with my stock LT1 intake. The ported LT4 intake and his ported heads are worth considering too, but you should give him a call.

Last info I have on Lloyd:

Lloyd Elliott

Red Oak, Tx 75154
