ET Guess'
Anyone wanna take a stab at what the motor in my signature will put out at the track (and a stab at the mods I plan?)
Heads flow as well as the edelbrock flow #'s I could find. Intake is stock, injectors are stock. Computer for now is stock...
Exhuast is either going to be 3" dual with an X-pipe, off of LPE 1-5/8" headers, free flow all the way, OR stock, depends what kinda $ I have at the time....
Heres the planned mods: SuperRam (maybe Miniram, havent decided yet); AFR 190 heads; SR/MR and heads ported to match (as well as more flow); Haltech fully programable computer, Dyno tuned motor, for optimal power (as well as a proggie for good milage for all those other days...); possible 3.54(or 3.45, whatever) gears (cars built for road racing not drag); 3" Freeflow dual exhuast off of 1-3/4 headers (everyone says the extra 1/8" will make a difference.. so its a planned mod). ABout it, custom cam or 219/219 cam may go in at some point, but low on the list right now.
Another note, no A/C, smog equipment, and an electric water pump, so very little loss there... I also have Koni adjustable shocks on the car, not sure how much of a difference adjusting those could make, the rear spring is stiffer then any of the stock ones made, was told a softer one would go faster, that true? If so, what kinda difference? (I still have my base spring sitting here.)
Anyways, thanks for any ideas you all have, say whether your guess is a "if lucky/best" or a "consistant/for sure" one....
THANKS :D :D :D
