Finally Get To Post Up My Boosted 427
Finally Get To Post Up My Boosted 427 It's been a year and half since I started this project and I just recently strapped the blower back on. Keep in mind this is not built for the track. This car will not receive a cage. My intentions were a 700+ RWHP, pump gas friendly, boosted motor a little out of the norm. After I installed the blower the motor was runnin a little warm so I just finished installing a BeCool radiator. Haven't driven it with the new rad. yet as I didn't have enuff Evans coolant to finish filling it.
I have some more on the way. So far the most boost I have gotton out of it is 7.5 PSI @ around 5800 RPM with a little belt slip. I am runnin a 8.5" crank pulley and 4.25" blower pulley. I am kind of experimenting with this pulley setup as far as belt tension. I may go to a 4" blower pulley a little later but if I do I will have to keep my revs below 7k to prevent overspinning the D1SC blower. I am runnin 4.5" ATI dual intercoolers and have no intentions to go to FMIC. So far my IAT's don't change much @ all when going from cruising to WOT, but I haven't laid into it for extended periods yet.
Enjoy

I had a request for cam specs. 242,248,610,615, 115lsa
Runnin Lunati Lifters and comp pushrods. Here is a link to a vid of what the cam sounds like @ idle from early last spring.

Those are some really nice pieces there in the lower end. Kind of overkill for a 700RWHP goal. Although there is nothing wrong with the nice peices, just a shame they get all covered up inside the motor.
Callies makes a killer crankshaft!
Nice looking build, looks like you did all right too. Good luck.

The plan was if I ever wanted to crank it up more I would be able to pretty easily, and I should be able too. I have the fuel system etc to support 1k rwhp. The clutch and rear are the weak links right now, but I just wanna enjoy it for awhile as it is.
How is fuel system run? what dos it consist of?I noticed on your fuel rail that you had a individual line to each rail. Do you have a fuel line that join's the rail's on the back or is it plugged off on each rail?
I have Lonnies dual pump setup, Magnafuel filter in stock location, 1/2" hard line for the feed, to a NOS Y. -6 Braided line to the rails. Stock feed for return.

I hope to be doing close to the same setup.
