Default Dart heads and small torquer cam

This is my dads car HPH in Bowling Green, KY hooked him up and he is very thankful for that. They did a good job.

His setup included the following:
Dart 205 heads
CC 214/220 550 lift (cam specs are a guess will get exact later but that is close)
BBK Polished Intake
XS Long Tube Headers and OR Y pipe
Borla Catback.

He has a 3.90 rear as well. He is just playing in the vid, to show me and my little brother the new mods lol. He forgot to turn off the TCS on the first punch though so it looked weak Anyway the dyno sheet shows a good solid line from TQ to HP which was exactly what he was looking for. He got exactly what he wanted almsot 400 RWHP with that small cam. THat is plenty of power for him, its just a weekend driver. And its a bit loud the Borla is about wide open.

If you had a quiet exhaust that car would be a real sleeper. With a couple of tweaks I bet the car would clear the 400rwhp mark. Very good numbers with the so called small cam.

I have the Dart 205's and a VHP 056 cam (216/224 0.551/0.551 115 LSA) and his results are very similar to mine. I have the Z06 titanium exhaust. It will be quieter, no drone and best of all you will knock about 25 lbs off the car and you can find them for $450 or so used. You can probably make money selling the Borla's and picking up the Ti's. Curves look good. I just installed the 3.90's in mine as well and its a ball to drive.
