Default Will it make 500rwhp

Motor
365 LSX
Callies Rods CP Pistons
12:1 Compression
242/250 .615/.615 108+2
Ported 243's (Flow ~300)
Porter Super Victor
Holley 850 DP
Blue Printed and Balanced
EWP
1 3/4 headers
MSD 6010

Then in the future it will get a 275-300 shot

Through a TH350/Spooled 8.8

Want to thank Martin for all the help and utmost respect for all the guidance and steering me the right way dealing with my *** LOL motor is RIGHT on the verge of being done and will be going in the car here soon. With the Changes I'm hoping for 500rwhp in the light car and some 130+ traps!!

NA, I doubt you will make more than 450-460.

You would need a 530 rwhp M6 motor, to even get close to 500rwhp with a TH350 and I do not see a motor that has that in it there.

If it was 14:1 compression and solid roller maybe, set up to rev too 7500 rpm. To rev up there, I think you will need more than 300cfm to.


As an example, my old 412 ci LS2 made 520rwhp with a 335 cfm AllPro cathedral ports, 12:1, similar spec cam and with an M6. Those were good numbers in 2005.

That was more motor than you have and I do not think it would have made 500 through a TH350.


For your sake, I hope I am wrong, but I do not see it.

If you want more, spray more! :-)

Well, there you go it must be true then. There is never any BS on the internet. lol

With your transmission and 450-460 it will be as fast or faster than the guy with a M6 and 500rwhp.

I know of a local 427 with MAST LS7 heads that had a power glide and made only low to mid 500s, it went bottom 10s NA and bottom 9s on spray. He was .8-.9 secs faster than my NA 500rwhp M6. On the dyno I think we were only like 10 or 20 apart.

I have built quite a few combos of my very own and had close friends run on the same dyno's. So I know what is real with a few of these set ups. Maybe our dyno's read low, but I doubt it.

As an example of my 4 set ups to date.

H/C LS1, ETP CNC's LS1 heads 420 rwhp in 2004
Stroker 412ci LS2, All Pro Heads, did a best of 519 rwhp in 2005
Stroker 455 ci LS7, TEA 245s, Harrop 55 did a best of 567 rwhp in 2009
Stroker 455 ci LS7, MAST 275s, Harrop 55 did a best of 705 fwhp in 2011, hopefully will be on the dyno this spring and only expect it to be 600ish with an M6.

Those are my personal motors and I have all data and dynos for each, not any I read somewhere in a post statement.

Just my opinion, from personal experience.

You did ask, if you knew it all already why ask?

Because he wanted you to stroke his ego.

It looks like a really solid setup. 130 traps should be close if its going into a foxbody. The heads are your biggest restriction.

low lift on that cam, lot of overlap, too. Head flow numbers are WAY low, and headers are pretty small. That's a good bit of carb, as well.

How about this for a reference.

https://ls1tech.com/forums/dynamomet...16-budget.html

51 more cubic inches, far better flowing heads, bigger headers, and a M6 made a little over 500rwhp at a reputable shop. What is magic about your set up? I will say I think you have the better intake, but that is about it.

You Tech guys take things super serious lol

Dyno numbers are nothing.....The set up is surely well thought out i personally think 460-470 range. baby cubes, Stock heads (kinda), carb, low compression......500rwhp is deff out of this set ups range.....But hurting feelings at the track i think it will do

Well you did ask what hp it would make, if that thing doesnt run great at the track it needs a new driver.

Its really an ongoing joke to a few local forum how serious things get over here....Obviously you can't race dyno numbers so not to worried about it if the 130 MPH traps are there then the power is there!

See you had a LS fox did that ever make it to the track

I drove it 200 miles and parted it out lol. Just wasnt what I wanted and to get it where I wanted it would have cost quite a bit more. For a light car with that power it really ran great though.
