Good deal!!! If I'm ever in your neck of the woods, I'll look you up. A cutting device, grinder and welder is all I need at my disposal to work my havoc...err I mean magic

Later,


Steve.

 

So what kinda of times are you planning on runnning dave?

I'm hoping to run 10.20's on the motor and 9.80's on 100 shot. This motor's built to take a 400 hit but I'll probably stick to 300 and below for this year. I dunno, on a 300 shot, maybe 9.20's, maybe quicker. A lot of things come into play when you're trying to go that fast. Horsepower is only a small fraction of the equation. Getting the suspension sorted out takes time. I could end up going 9.60's at like 150+ if I can't get the 60's where they need to be.

The car should weigh around 3475 with me in it and I weigh 215. If I did my homework correctly the motor should make around 750 N/A, hopefully a little more. My goal was to get as close to 1200 on the bottle as possible.

 

I would think you could make more than 750 Dave.

There is a guy on corvette forum with a 427ci SB2 setup named jburnett. his setup twisted the dyno to the tune of 922hp at the crank.

 

More like EVERYTHING beware.

 

OK I got everything wrong in the last reply.

Here is the thread

Yeah, I've seen em' make 900+ n/a. Our heads only flowed 380cfm though thanks to the smallish 4.030 bore (they love 4.1+" bores). My cam is a little smaller than his at 270/280 @ .050" .720/.680 113 lsa. Plus he's got 28 more cubes. I'll be happy if it reaches the 750 mark but won't be suprised if it makes 800.

 

Unless your name is Big Rick, Taner, etc.....

 

Very Nice.. Still LT1 block right?

 

Yes. It's filled with hardblock to the freeze plugs. Everything is reverse cooled with an LT1 Meziere hd pump.

 

Hurry up and get that thang done Dave!

Can't wait to see the finished product.
