The Block is the original 69 block, but with a .030 over on it. <br /><br />It is efi out of a 86 with a 90 A1L computer, logitec chipped. Have not switched to the mass air yet, but will be done before I Start the car. <br /><br />This is what I am putting on it atm: Just ordered a C&L 73mm mas air set to 24# injectors, and the 24 pound injectors to go with it. Brand new Pro Products typhoon Intake, with a 70mm Pro Products TB. A cam equivalent to an E-303 cam, but mine is mechanical flat tappet, so not the E cam. And some e-7s with 2.01 intake and 1.98 exhaust ports. 1.6 roller rockers. And just to be loud, noisy gear drive instead of a chain. <br /><br />So what I am looking for is an idea of how much, just a ball park, of HP and 1/4 mile time Thanks guys.<br /><br />And worth a tune after all said and done? I don't know that I will really do too much more the the engine other then what is posted.<br /> <br /> <small>[ March 21, 2011, 12:10 AM: Message edited by: Yellow69 ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>93sspCOUPE</b> <br /><small>Member # 8418</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(2011,2,21,0,51,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Not knowing the comp ratio or converter and cyl head I'm guessing 260-290rwhp and maybe a 14.50 on street tires hard to guess tho <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>93sspCOUPE</b> <br /><small>Member # 8418</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(2011,2,21,0,53,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Oh just realized you listed a cyl head still would be around the same guess tho <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>MauriSSio</b> <br /><small>Member # 9943</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(2011,2,21,11,10,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> whats your car weigh? <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>wilit</b> <br /><small>Member # 3367</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(2011,2,21,12,4,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Your car probably came with a 2.79 or 3.00 rear end.

You say you're using a "mechanical flat tappet" cam and E7 heads. When you say mechanical flat tappets, are you using solid lifters or hydraulic? Cause if they're solid, generally you need to run a little bit of valve lash, like .015-.020. I'm pretty sure you can't do that with E7 heads because they use pedestal rockers.
