Why do you have a ported intake but only running a 52mm throttle body?

Because a 52mm is more than enough to supply my combo. I have no need for a 58.

Got the harness mocked up and loomed what I could with the harness out of the car. I have replaced 90 percent of the engine harness. Cause im just picky like that. Will have pics up later of some other stuff im going to accomplish later today.

Kind of a random question but how do you like those arp locks. I got some regular comp cam ones but i like that locking feature. Do you think its worth it to just spring the extra cash? its a cc306 car also. Thanks!

That combo should run really well. I ran a real similar combo back 2003 for quite a few years and it ran awesome for what it was, 355" with forged pistons, LE ported stock castings, CC306 cam, stock lifters, Crane Golds, Pacesetters, full exhaust with cutout, 3600Vig converter, 26x11.5's on motor,best pass 11.20@121mph. Then when I sprayed 150 n20, the car ran- 10.30@130mph,on 175HP- 10.17@133mph,on 325/50/15"M/T with 3.42's in the 10bolt! Then i swapped to a homebuilt 8.8" that worked well.

This is what im hoping for. My heads arent LE ported but they are 200cc cnc heads with 2.0 and 1.56 valves. I built my 10 bolt all except for axles. Your times are right where I want to be, so hopefully my car will run as well as yours did. How high were you spinning that motor? Were you using stock rods with arp bolts too?
