MOTOR IS IN!

RE: MOTOR IS IN!
I went cheap on this motor. I only have about $1500 in it. I have bored .030 block 10/10 crank, stock rods,seal power pistons, b cam, windsor sr heads, tf intake. Its only gonna be 9:1 compression, maybe a little less. Everything but the intake, rods, and crank are new.
My old motor which is the same as your except I had tf intake and longtubes peaked hp at 5800rpm on the dyno. I shifted right at 5800. All speed density as well just like your doing.

I sold the cam and heads before I started on the motor. I had the b cam sitting in my garage so I threw it in for now. I'm probably gonna upgrade to a larger cam and afr 185 heads in the summer. I just want to get the car running now. It should still be a 12 second car as it sits.

I made 277hp at the wheels on a 100* day. On a cooler day should be couple more, that was on a 190k mile bottom end. The torque is gonna be good from 2200 all the way to 5800. My torque band was from 250-295 and died at 5800 around 260.

nice nice, good to hear...
motor is ALMOST done... i just need to pick up header gaskets, and some vac line ****... bolt the intake on, then fan/rad. and its good to go...
ran to autozone to get the ****, they didnt have anything i needed at all. i was kinda pissed... it would have been done tonight
