I intended to post this Thursday night but I figured I would put out a little teaser.
My car is going on the dyno Thursday for it's tune with the new setup. I'm geeked! I've been running a base tune that they put in last fall. Car feels very good/strong. Here's a few pics. (IMG:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/Redbird1/engine/e1dc9395.jpg) (IMG:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/Redbird1/engine/08a5ae20.jpg) (IMG:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/Redbird1/engine/b9d73198.jpg) GMHTP had a 383 with ported stock heads put down (uncorrected) 448.5 at the crank. I have AFR190 street port. Not sure if this is better or worse than the ported stocks. Find out Thursday. My hope when I started this was 400 HP at the wheels. Wish me luck. Steve |

I emailed the head manufacture AFR yesterday. I described my basic setup to him and asked what springs he would recommend. This is his response. Anyone have any experience with the hydra-rev kit?
Hi Steve Rather than do a spring change you would be better off using our Hydra Rev kit, it will allow you to go up to 7000 rpm before you start getting into vavle float. AFR is no longer doing updates to competition porting, but the 190cc heads you currently have on your 383 are capable of up to 500hp if you stay out of vavle float. You still have plenty of cylinder head with out any additional porting for your application. Scott Sperling AFR Sales/Tech( 818) 890-0616 X102 Any thoughts? Steve |
