Get a hold of 88BlackZ51. He has polled every engine parts combination possible and probably a few that aren't. He can tell you the horsepower and the ET down to the tenth, of any and every C4 ever assembled.

RACE ON!!!

CFI-EFI knows that I am the master.......However he is my little jedi that I am training. I just took a washroom break and I walked into my computer room to check my emails, and check the forum and was asked to comment on this combo. However, I must go back and watch my hockey team kick some butt! GO LEAFS GO!!


Time to shut the computer off. Goodnight CFI-EFI. Sweetdreams!

To the thread started. Looks like a good combo. 10x the combo that CFI has in his old bucket of bolts 84 car. As you can see good old ****box CFI ruined another thread. Take care!

So YOU made me do it. Master pest maybe, or baiter. Every time anyone ever posted an engine combination, "What horsepower did it make?? What does it run in the 1/4?". Then as he daydreamed various engine set ups, he asked, "What horsepower will this make? What will it turn?".

I should hope so. Mine hasn't ever been worked on.

With a good tune that car will rock. Most guys seem to recomend proven combos that are pretty tame. I have a milder motor with a Miniram that I got this summer. Wish I would have done it 4 years ago. Let us know about those Brodix heads. They are looking better all the time.

Looks like a solid combo with all the right parts.

Miniram setups make very good power above 4K rpms.

On paper , it looks stronger than my setup.

Well, since you asked:

I would have gone with more rocker ratio and a wider LSA on the cam.

Just mt thoughts.
