Planning my 416 build thread!
Planning my 416 build thread! Hey guys. I'm am starting to plan my 416 build thread here. My last build was a turbo, going to try n/a this time. This will be a street strip car, looking for tons of low and mid range torque. Car needs to be streetable. 6 speed with 3.73 gears. Below is what I am planning on using and what I haven't decided on. Your opinions would be great.
My main hang up is i can't decide which heads, there seems to be a lot of good places to buy heads these days, and who I should have spec the cam.
Mamofied fast 102
102 throttle body
60# injectors (already have)
Underdrive pulley
TEA TFS heads or Mamofied afr heads.
BTR valve springs
Stock rockers
Forged shortblock from TMS.
Custom cam. Not Sure yet. Martin Smallwood or tony Mamo
Ls7 lifters
Racetronix 255 fuel pump. (Already in the car)
1 7/8 headers, not sure for the rest. I currently have magna flow, but I'm guessing that isn't going to flow enough. Maybe just run it with a cutout.
I would love to make 600rwhp, but i know that is probably never going to happen on pump gas. 550rwhp will make me happy. I'm thinking 11:1 cr. I will be using 91 octane. There isn't any 93 pump gas available around here!

Might wanna check out threads in the Dynomometer section (scroll down a bit). To that end and taking your goals in to account, I would consider Tony Mamo 235cc cathedral port heads and cam.

LOL.....well hell.....if you wanna compare YOUR setup to the Mamo set up, you can....just be honest about how you're running a lot more compression and a cam with about 15* more overlap to get the extra 17HP that you got.
I mean....for STREETABLE power, I think many of us would pass on a cam with 38 degrees of overlap.
IJS....

And it's only 33* of overlap. And I guess the 17hp more car you're referring to is the one you linked to? Well it has almost the same compression as mine. 1/4 point off. Woooooo. Oh and he had a electric water pump, RPS lightened flywheel. I had a box stock fast 92, stock water pump, 3" steel driveshaft, 295/55/15 drag radials, 9", spec stage 3 with heavy steel flywheel.... I wasn't after a dyno number. I was after track results. And it performs there.
