That doesn't sound right. Maybe something forum motion added recently. I'll see if there is a setting someplace.

Sounds like a low 9 second street car!

Guest

Eh, I dont know about low 9s. Plan to spray a 175 shot. Should net quite a bit over that in hp with that cam. But ya never know

Guest

Thought you'd spray more at it! Should still be pretty stout. Is the cam grind for E-85?

What year is the block? is it a factory block or an aftermarket?

Guest

It is factory. I understand the limits of the block completely. I honestly wouldnt be suprised if I were to crack it farther down the road. 175 will really be pushing it hard.

If I went the route of a dart block, I would have ended up throwing a giganto turbo on her.

Wow! That is some serious lift on that cam. Those victor Jr's should flow really nice. What kind of rpm's will you turn with it?

Guest

I would like to think high 6000s.. Its hard to say right now. Factory block and series 9000 crank are holding me back for that part

Subject: Re: . Tue Jan 24, 2012 10:54 pm

Sounds like a healthy combo. What transmission will you be running?

Guest

T5 lol when it blows I will be thrpowing a built c4 in Most likely. I don't see it lasting too long

Subject: Re: . Tue Jan 24, 2012 11:57 pm

So you know if it is a roller block or is older? I spin my 408 to 7000 all the time!

Guest

It is not a roller block, I will be throwing some comp retrofit lifters in it. The heads with pushrod guideplates as well so there wont be any issues

What have you done to work the suspension on it? I'm sure the 9 inch will manage, but what about body flex, converter, and front end tweaks?

Mike

Guest

I will be running an 8.8 for the rear. With the 31 spline diff and axles I should be fine and be able to save a few pounds.

Suspension why I have adjustable shocks. Once I build the 8.8 I will be throwing adj control arms, torque boxes and subframes on. Possibly a bag for the rear passenger side. I will further go into suspension after that.

The front end has a tubular k member for the windsor swap. No coilovers currently but that will be an easy swap.

Just dont have a billion dollars to spend currently

Guest

Also I made a minor mistake, motor is closer to 12:1 than 11:1. shouldn't be an issue
Also they sent 1.72 rockers not 1.7. Also not a biggie. Just a little more lift and duration

should be fine if your running e85

Subject: Re: . Fri Feb 03, 2012 12:44 am

I know its not much but be wary about the increased lift. I'm sure you have measured depth and all so no worry of pistons slapping, but still slight changes in geometry do increase issues with wear, especially when dealing with the lift you are playing with at this time.

Mike

PS kudos for stepping up retainers, those comp ones are a nice peace of mind item!

Guest

I wouldn't think keepers would go for 24 bucks! lol They are the 10 degree keeper and retainers.

We will check for ptv clearance for sure. lift is .688 instead of .680
