this whole setup is going to be over a long period of time as i get the money. but what i was thinkin was that this setup would be too much for a street-use vehicle...

i was going to stroke it out to a 331 then tt it.

i'm expecting big gains but i'm not really sure exactly

 

there is no such thing as un streetable, it just all deoends on your pocket book, to make any repairs and buy good gas,and if you want to have to work on it any, some combo's are more forgiving on the street than other, but with turbos it's hard to not be a good street set up cause they are easy on the motor and still make killer power

 

i see what you mean... ok thanks

 

Yea, like 50mustang said, its all about how deep your pockets are. The setup along will cost you BIGGGGGGG bucks. Considering you are going to need a crazy block to handle that power, crazy internals, crazy trans, rear, suspension, fuel, ign, tires, bla bla bla. Your talking thousands and thousands of dollars. I thought my setup was going to be crazy. Thats just insane.

 

what was your setup?

 

DSS Super Pro Bullet 357, C4, Transbrake, Full Tubular D&D Suspension, Aeromotive Comp Kit, 9' rear, tubbed, 150hp shot, AFR 205 heads, port n polished Edelbrock RPM manifold, full MSD, 4:10's, bla bla bla.

 

never too much... as for money. it can get really really expensive.

 

that's why i said it'll be over a period of time

 

i think the cam has a lot to do with how streetable it is. if its super lumpy it would get annoying as a daily driver. i had a 351 in a truck that even when it was warmed up, the engine seemed as it was about to die. made good power but got annoying after a while. 8mpg sucked too.
right now im making 403hp and its my daily driver but im still running the stock cam. i plan to get the power to around 480rwhp with the stock cam and it will still be my daily driver.

 

part of the reason i was asking this was that i was wondering if i got too much of a performance cam or something that it would idle badly or something like that
