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 |

Steve, guess I missed this thread until now. If you remember, I also ran the 224/230/112 XE cam last year in my 350. I was using 1.65 rockers however. I got 340 RWHP at about 5800 rpm on a Mustang dyno here in town. At the time I was using the 612 springs from Combination Motorsports. They were surprisingly cheap with retainers and locks and worked great.
If you plan on upping the cam later I'd go with better springs, but for the XE 224/230 the 612 springs are well within their range. |
