Compression ?

@ 11:1 I will guess 400-425 RWHP ???

A lot of variables.

That white car in the pic is my wife's cam only it that makes 400rwhp, my old setup wen I was fuel injected and a ms3 cam made 440 rwhp through the 9"

That is some serious business there. I am not much of a wheel dyno guy, but I would have to think that would be near 500 RWHP even through that high stall. But, the real story on that bad boy is going to be what it does at the strip when you spray it. I look forward to seeing what it does. Love those pro series Jesel rockers. How much they hit you for those?

I think where on the same page lol, i bought the rockers used from a guy on here, I think 700buks i paid, and I actually broke a jesel rocker on the street down in ocean city Maryland that ruined my weekend , I believe I had the jam nuts locked down to tight by hand, so I torqued them this time around, and yea cant wait to get to the track with it

your reasoning to go to a carb instead of staying efi is the exact same reason i made the switch also. i had bad experience after bad experience with multiple tuners and realized i'd never be happy. to sit down and learn the EFI tuning game at this point isn't an option. i'll get around to it one day for mild builds, but for this kind of stuff, i'm sticking to the metered fuel leak.

i know of a forged 384 that was making almost 700rwhp on a mustang dyno spraying 2 kits in a c5 6 speed vette. Im forging my 346 in my 90 mustang lx righ now with diamond dome pistons & shooting for 12.5 to 1 compression.I plan on spraying 2-300 with a nitrous outlet puck. keep us posted on how it does.

Was just curious. Did the rocker arm itself break at the adjuster? Or did it break by the shaft? Heard of the sportsman series breaking but, never heard anything about the pro series breaking.

Sweet build, good luck

Looks good. The plenum in that manifold needs some work if it's out of the box. Should be a strong running engine

What do you do to the plenums in the Victors and how much power did you gain?

WE TODD DID

Get the dividers the correct radius, and fix the entries to the runners.

i'm curious about power gains also. my super vic is still out of the box.

WE TODD DID

iTrader: (2)

Honestly I couldn't tell you.... I don't run them out of the box. I haven't seen a cast manifold yet that couldn't use some attention. I will guarantee that there are gains to be made with it.

I bought this intake used and it was cleaned up in plenum and runners with but not ported or opened up any larger

the rocker broke clean off the adjuster

thanks buddy stay tuned

We had our super vic done up by the performance shop we use. And that's all they did to ours as well, other than port matching. Was told that people get carried away with hogging out there intakes changing their flow characteristics completely. And most of the time it hurts them more than it helps.

Very nice build you got going there. Should be a screamer. In for results.
