question on setup.

1994 z28.lt1

383 stroker.

3.750 eagle crank
eagle 5.7 i-beam rods
speed pro 11:1 pistons fully balanced.
stock heads ported with 2.00/1.56 stainless valves
30lb injectors
dual springs
retainers,crane rail type gold race roller rockers
comp cams hydraulic roller cam (dont have specs on cam)
lt4 intake ported.
52mm throttlebody
edelbrok long tube headers
3 inch single exhaust.

Thats all i remember as of now..
tanny is automatic, built by level 10
2800 stall, still running on stock computer.
over drive still in it.


the car made-
312.5 hp,283 torque

with cut out open.
car made
326 hp,296torque

this was also done on a chasis dyno.

Do those numbers sound about right?
all i have done to this car was a cut out, remove cat put in resenator..Figured it might be just really restricted..

EDIT= also says car is runing base tune, will i see a crazy difference with a more aggressive tune? pulls were done up to 5800 and still kept gaining power, but i didnt wanna risk going higher.

Houston, we have a problem! No those #s don't sound right. Did you just buy this car?

I agree those # are off but you should probably be running a mild or better tune. Also you could run 37 or more pound injectors and a 58mm throttle body to help.

What "long tube" headers does Edelbrock make?

Was the LT4 intake machined properly to eliminate the interference with the valve cover rail on the LT1 heads?

What is the flow on the heads?

What do you mean by "base tune"? Do you mean "stock"?
