What's his combo?

He posts on here. his sn is like "forced 331" or something.. Well, he looks on here, hardly ever posts anything. He told me to put what his numbers were.

To the best of my knowledge he has a 331 with all the good internals, aluminum edelbrock heads (un ported), cobra intake(un ported), and an S trim shoving 14 pounds of boost at the motor. 42 pound injectors, 255 in tank, etc, etc...

We took it to RPM the other day to see what it put to the wheels and were shocked with 500 horsepower. We gave half a turn to the fuel pressure regulator and got 532 to the wheels the next pull. The last pull we gave it another little turn and it dropped to 520 so we turned it back and left. He will probably take it to Apex or something for a dyno tune eventually. It is a clean car, but rarely leaves his garage......

Which edelbrock heads? What cam?

Posted by hidnn.o.s. (Member # 1219) on :
 
I beleive it is a custom grind. I know he does not like the cam for drive ability, mainly below 1800 RPM's.

Yes, edelbrocks.

Not sure which Edelbrocks, he got the newest ones they had. Purchased about 2 years ago I think. He used them off of his old combo.

My mistake, he has a trick flow R intake, but the heads are the bottle neck in the motor.

Sounds like he has some Victor Jr heads on that car. Can you ask him to find out for sure? Some ET drags/streets will make the car a whole lot more fun to drive down the track

I seen him run it looked like alot of work/fun. He spun to almost half track.

What was the fuel pressure at?
 

---

Posted by hidnn.o.s. (Member # 1219) on :
 
No one knows for sure. Guage isn't working. The isolator needs to be bled or something.
