Depends on what number you have in mind? I have seen stock unported, stock valve size GT-40's in the 10.30's in an N/A configuration... and I am sure others have gone quicker. [ July 06, 2009, 04:14 AM: Message edited by: Notch1320 ]

I'd hope you could get 280rwhp+ with them, I made 249hp/296tq at the wheels on a dynojet with e7's on my healthy stock motor from the throttle body to the oil pan.
I know of a guy in socal with a ported set that made 304rwhp with gt40's on a street car 94/95gt..

+1, the guy did the port work himself, if you were to pay for the work, I'd say sell the gt40's and get a set of aluminum heads, cheaper in the long run.

$600 for port work + $300 for heads and you're still $300 lower than a new set of Edelbrocks or Trickflows. [ July 06, 2009, 09:18 PM: Message edited by: wilit ]

A good valve job will cost you at least $400.

stock `87 motor, stock tb/intake/rockers/e7s/cam/etc, but with `89 MAF harness and A9L ecu, no a/c, no p/s, pullies, electric fan, 3g alt, stock airbox and tube with k&n filter but no air silencer, pro-m 19lb MAF, timing at 14*btdc base, long tubes, dr. gas o/r x-pipe, dynomax superturbo catback
the car ran a 13.1 @ 104mph with a 1.71 60' in that trim
my buddy 'coupester' on corral ran 12.95 or something with his stock e7 car, and made 245rwhp / 320rwtq, his had a good 3 angle valve job done on the heads though, mine are untouched ~100k mile heads...

clean out the exaust bump does a lot for these and the e7 heads , this will cost 150 bucks, by me. if u want the heads 100 percent rebuilt, take them to frams machine shop, an when he breaks down the heads an inspects them for what they need he will tell u a price<price unknown for the state of there condition>. for an additional 300 bucks while the heads are broken down by him ,he will send them to me , then i fully clean up an bowl blend behind the vavles, cut out the bumps in the exaust an smooth an partially reshape out the exaust runner <they suck stock> port match the intake to whatever intake gasket your runnin.this is about the best there gonna get for the money, before your like i should have bought after market heads. when im done with the heads i send them back to frams machine shop an then he does his thing reassmbling.call if interested been doin it for years with great results. 707 297 0868

You must be referring to Stock Eliminator Cars. There would be NO other way to have a stock valved,unported GT40 running 10 anyting any other way NA. Those guys have THOUSANDS into their combos to make a stock head do anything, and most of it is in the cam/shortblock but still an untouched head those numbers are damn near unatainable
I had a BADASS set of Panhandle Peformance GT40 Heads that were worked as far as humanly possible and they still only had 280 flow numbers. They did have stock valve size. These were ran on a stock eliminator car where they had to utilize stock casting,vlave size etc....

Yes, Stock Eliminator cars. There are several GT-40 headed cars, and a handfull of E7 cars in Stock Eliminator that run some very impressive numbers. Evan Smith (93 Cobra)is in the 10.80 range, and quicker at race weight. Stripped down without the added weight, stock seats, and other heavy required stock items can return some extremely low numbers. Low 10's are very possible! These cars retain stock lift camshafts as well. Look at the NMRA Factory Stock guys. they have quite a few different rules, but the class champion for the last few years runs an E7 headed combo, and has been destroying the GT40 headed cars, along with the 2V and 4V cars. Learning to pull every ounce of power out of something is not cheap, and can be frustrating, but it can be done.

Yeah years back I had a buddy that ran stock elim truck. with a 360 Mopar and 5k pound truck with all factory offered parts that thing would dip into the 11's occasionaly . Thoe guys have some ideas that if they were adapated to whats available, could make some seriouly amazing power.
