Default What is your setup N/A???

I keep reading everyones posts and I am realizing that I dont need a supercharger to achieve my goals (400's rwhp). So I am wanting to know what setups you guys are running N/A. from stock 351W to all strokers. If I need to tear into my block, then a smaller stroker is considered. Just tell me what you got. I do plan on having fuel injection for reliability on the street day to day. Looking for guidance in the right direction. I am starting to plan my build that will start in either January or February.

Thanks for your help.

393 to 408 stroker with AFR 205-225's with custom cam running about 10.5-11 to 1 compression
will make you very happy.
Run a Super Victor EFI intake with 1 3/4 LT's

Thanks for your reply r.barn. How is your mpg? I would like to have power, but don't want to kill the streetaspect in doing so.

Come on guys!!! Give me your street setup N/A. I'm trying to point myself in a direction. It's getting closer to build time, and I need to finalize some areas.

If it is a street car and not a daily driver, why worry about MPG? Sort of like my 502 engine in my boat and everyone telling me about how bad it does on gas, if I gave a crap I would sell the boat and get a Gayliner. MPG should not be a concern if it is a weekend car you cruise in. Well, that is the way I look at it.

Jasperstang308 and FASTBLACK I appreciate your responses. Nice setup, but a little more than what I need. To clarify, this car will be driven more often than not. As long as its not bad weather, then the Stang will come out to play, so thats why I dont want to be getting 6 mpg. I understand what youre saying jvschle, but I am not gonna be racing all day everyday. I just want to be able to swat the annoying rice flies away.

393Bird that is an AMAZING setup!!! Props to you foryour hard work and creativity with the car. The motor setup is a little more than what I need but do like it. What were your power #'s before the Vortech? I am also assuming that your bottom end is forged.
