max boost on pump gas? - Page 2

QWKSNKE · 01-05-2006, 04:53 PM

some people say that the support systems do not help but i put a Canton steel girdle on my motor when I built it this time last year. I preferred the actual steel girdles over the aluminum ones that the other companies make.

By the way my 306 puts out 525rwhp @ 14 psi

i see your sif but could you fill me in on your motors other specs such as cam lift and compression?

QWKSNKE · 01-05-2006, 05:30 PM

Cam is a blower grind by AFM

lift .544/.544
duration @ .050 is 218/228
lobe separation is 112

Stock compression 9:1

475HP '03 cobra · 01-05-2006, 05:53 PM

what octane does your car run on, and how much lift ( hard ques becuase of all the factors) do you think i could run on a cam in the 347 with afr 185cc heads

QWKSNKE · 01-05-2006, 05:55 PM

I have it tuned to run on 93 octane.

Can't answer your cam question. I do recommend that you do a custom grind though

475HP '03 cobra · 01-05-2006, 06:01 PM

what if i went with a N/A setup 12.5:1 compression and flat top notched pistons should i still get a custom grind?

QWKSNKE · 01-05-2006, 06:10 PM

yep. I would. Custom grinds offer much better power than 'off the shelf cams"

well after collecting the info i think i'm going to stick with my original N/A application becuase of the cost to go blown.

my goal would be 400rwhp and the street fighter setup dyno'd at 400 flywheel hp and i am looking at the engine that is a little more juiced up

do you guys think i can make 400rwhp with afr 185cc heads, custom grind cam, edlebrock performer 5.0 upper/lower, CAI, shorty headers, O/R X-pipe, and flowmaster cat-back.

will i need to port and polish/ gasket match to get there or can i make it with just a good tune?

QWKSNKE · 01-05-2006, 08:02 PM

I do but you may want to use a trickflow track heat intake

475HP '03 cobra · 01-05-2006, 08:08 PM

funny, they always said you should stick with first instinct. i was set on the trickflow track heat but was reading afr's site and they said something about using the performer. back to the original plan.

anyway, do you think port/polish is neccesary? if i have the money i would gasket match anyway. any idea how much a gasket match or p&p cost?
