Re: engin help

Stock 165 MAF ECM will not support that kind of hp,
Stock 730 MAP ECM is alot better then MAF but I'm not sure what kind of power it will support,
DFI is going to be your best bet

you'll need at least some huge injectors like 60# or something and a serious fuel system to supply it

My cousin built a 383 running a stock TPI intake, it ran 400hp at the flywheel,
but siad there wouldn't be much chance it getting 500hp out of it,
he knows his stuff, builds sprint car and drag car motors for a living

Re: engin help

I'd have to see a dyno sheet AND video to belive that,

who tuned it?

if your 88 and running stock MAF setup, its almost impossible unless your car has terrible drivabilty

Re: engin help

What crank, rods and pistons you using? 800 hp will send stock rods through the pan.
