Round 2 of 352 beating coming up.....
« on: January 09, 2021, 12:16:06 PM »
Got her back together this morning.





I feel pretty solid about her and I think the head work will really bring it alive.  Got a couple of customer engines to dyno first but will have it on the pump in the next few weeks. 

I'll offer this up as a two parter:

1.  Guess the horsepower on this one.  Same engine except with 40 more cfm of flow.  Did lose a couple cc's to the valve job and chamber work. 

2.  I'm wanting to try another intake manifold after the next dyno session.  Leaning towards an adapter and a tunnel ram.  Any other suggestions on something that's a little outside of normal?

Tunnel ram?  Webers?

T Ram would make more power eh?
That’s my vote.

Outside the normal ?  How's about an adaptor and a CrossBoss with an Inline Autolite ?

Victor vs tf

That would be a good one, but I'm trying to keep things "vintage" looking.  Kinda either looking at Webers or a Tunnel Ram right now.

Reworked tri-power with bigger carbs if necessary or cross-ram?

Will loan you an early Ed. 2 x 4 intake and 2 400 cfm AFB's

Also have an Ed. 3 x 2 intake with the small bolt pattern and 3 x WW stromberg 2 barrel carbs from Dodge 318 mill

All carbs will need kits though ...

I would like to see a comparison of that Streetmaster I ported for you earlier last year against the -F intake.  Joe-JDC

I think the Webers outpowered the Tunnel Ram in Jay's testing.

I appreciate it, Greg.  I used a TW on my 390 so I’d kinda like to try something new and different.
