Make sure the spring in the vac secondary is working to it's full potential. Also, with those headers, full a 2.5" exhaust system and a good set of free-flowing mufflers. <br /><br />If you want a carb and intake cheap, I've got nearly the same combo sitting here. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>The_MuffinMan25</b> <br /><small>Member # 6235</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2007,5,17,13,14,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I already have my parts.

I wanted to do it ol school I dont care about trouble with cold start and the small mpg gain. Plus the benefits of the H.O block (aside from roller cam) made my $300 dollar purchase of the engine a smart choice. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>The_MuffinMan25</b> <br /><small>Member # 6235</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2007,5,17,13,19,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> OH sorry if I sounded pissed people always are hassleing me about not going EFI. Also I plan on going with a pair of magnaflow mufflers because from what I have heard and been told they will give me a nice deep sound. Also for piping size I wasn't sure what size 2.5" as JohnB I had in mind. Would a 2.75" be too much or too loud. I want to be able to not get pulled over all the time but still sound Bad A$$!

Same long tube headers, good cam. He didn't want to spring for a good set of heads so I ported his heads and put in chevrolet 1.94 and 1.60 valves. We put a 331 stroker kit in it. No dyno infomation but he reported back that it was sufficient to beat at least 2 vipers and one 06 corvette.
