victor jr intake
700holley Dp
electric water pump drive
msd 6a
9 qrt oil pan with windage tray and baffles and crank scraper
march performance ration pulleys (just have an crank and alternator pulley)
electric fan

all this with a c-4 with 3000 stall speed and a 9 inch with 3.89 gears

How does this sound for a street/strip. (only driven to local shows and track)

Thanks in advance[/align]

 

Forgot to ask if you can give me some hp/trq out of this combo Thanks

 

i think the 700 holley might be overkill. everything else sounds good.

 

i think that 700 would be fine with those heads, cam, and compression.

should run like a raped ape, lets see a video clip of that thing running!

 

YA i will get a video for you guys. Hoping it runs real strong to show the chevy guys around here whos boss

 

I might even consider a bigger carb. I've ran a750 holley on a 351W not as strong as this one, and it ran really good. Even better than the 600 I took off. Don't be afraid to move up to a 800 or 850dp if the top end seems weak.

With that combo, you'll make excellent top end power. Your effective cylinder pressures will be a little high. But with that cam nothing terrible. Except on a hot day, it should run good on pump premium.

You won't have much bottom end. It will idle well at about 1000-1200. A bigger carb may need a higher idle.

With a hydraulic cam, it won't run over 6,200. Depending on the parts you chose, maybe not even that high. I suggest Comp Cams beehive springs. That gives more stability and adds a couple hundred rpm's on the cyclotron. I'm curious why you didn't go with a mechanical cam? All the other parts should make power to 7,000 or so.

 

We are running a similar but different setup on our 408....

210 Vic Jr. Heads
Air Gap Dual Plain intake,
11 to 1
750 DP
Very similarcam in a roller version

I think we are running about 500 HP & TQ or so at the FW, I wouldguess your combo might be a littlebetter on the top end..

 

bigger carb and bigger headers will make her run better. Those 1 1/2" tubes are not letting it breath like it should.

You also may want to invest in a rev limiter. The 6A doesn't have one but you can add one to your system.
