I wondering how much power a TC78 would be good to on a Auto 346LS1. Im thinking 750rwhp+. How much more power is the standard T-78 worth over a TC-78. One last question.... Is a Race cover for a TC78 just a standard T-78 cover.

Yep that is it.....and yes that is a 3" DP. The 3.5" and 4" DP versions are cut and welded.....very easy to spot. The casted version is always the 3".

Also a little birdie on this board made some LOW 9's sec passes last night with his TC76 on his 347ci. This cooler air is really helping.....hope the person posts.

do you get anppreciable gains from porting these bad boys? Looks like theres a good amount of material to port out if you wanted to maximize power on a budget.

Can race covers be had for the tc76 or tc78? If so how much are they and how can we get ahold of them?
