I already have afr 185's, air gap intake, and 1.6 magnum roller rockers. He showed me dynos sheets that put this right about 500hp and 460ft lbs

 

nice!

 

Mmmmm,,, I cant wait to stroke mine.. a 408 would make me very happy...

Remember Kids: There's no Replacement for Displacement.

 

I dont belive 500 hp........sorry. I have basically the same combo so with my turbo i would be at 650+ and that aint happening.Troy is a good guy, but keep on him, he also did my engine 3 TIMES due to "woops" and "oh, is that what we were doing".

 

What are the cam specs?

 

check with woody at http://www.fordstrokers.com/ he has great prices

 

yea i like woody alot very easy to work with and they also do custom stuff too

 

i hear woody is great but i want to go with someone local. I told troy i want to run a xe282hr. He wants to put a custom cam in. I dont remember what specs.

As far as 500hp i dont belive it as well. but I have seen more than a few applications get close to 480hp n/a. Hp power numbers are not as important to me as the torque curve anyhow. Id be happy with 430 if it kicks *** throught the rpm range.

 

I think 430-450 is A LOT closer to what it will make. My buddy had them build his with a Funnel Web,AFR’s, .600 lift roller and 11:1 and it made about 475 on a engine dyno if I remember correctly.

My buddy has a CHP 9:1 347 claiming 450 HP and it is very quick, runs 7.6’s untuned and vey dependable.

 

Thanks for the kind words, if I can help in anyway just shout
