This is my latest score, a 74 Mav with 302/C4. Couldn't pass it up for $300 :)
Some kind of rotary tool like an air die grinder with a brass brush wheel will take off every ounce of that rust and do no damage to the front....
I have considered that. I haven't actually measured one out but its gotta be close. I had mentioned to my buddy who has a junkyard what I was...
Here's a dyno simulation. I bumped back up to 10:1, corrected some flow numbers (but those are box-stock TFS twisted wedge heads) and went with...
An optimistic guess
DD only has three choices; hyd flat, solid flat, and solid or hyd roller. Its all outlined in the owner's manual as to why and that's one of the...
You're right. It just basically assumes standard frictional losses which are more similar than you think between engines and designs. Just using...
Here's an analogy that I use. This analogy uses different physics like inertia, but its just intended to be demonstrative. Someone hit facts...
DD doesn't use friction as part of its simulation, other than a standard friction number. For instance, if you plug in a Chevy 400 and get a...
Yep, I was in the middle of editing the website and my lovely XP locked up. It will be up later tonight or tomorrow. Sorry 'bout that.
Well, I could pick up another 20 hp by jumping to 11:1, but compression is not the free ride everyone hopes for. I agree that for an optimum...
By the way, in case any of you are curious... http://www.curtisandkim.com/cars.htm
Excellent info, thanks to all. Details aren't hammered out yet, but I've never owned a car that responded well to a high-revving engine. All of...
I usually get my head flow data at http://users.erols.com/srweiss/tablehdc.htm but that link you gave is excellent for exactly what I need here....
Why are my numbers so darn high??? I'm getting a clean 550hp @ 6500 and 460tq @ 5000. If I plug in the flow numbers into the calculator (251cfm...
We just had several lengthy discussions over at Automotive Forums about this. I moderate the Engineering/Tech forums and a proprietor of coates...
Here's what I put into Dyno2000 and its spitting out numbers that I don't trust. 30-over (roller) 302 10:1 single plane intake trick flow TW...
Are there some ballparks? I searched and the general consensus is that a well balanced stock assembly is probably good for about 6200. What...
By the way, i found some nice M2 conversion tech in this thread. Anyone do it? Worth it? Or should I just max what I have?...
So, is there a common front suspension upgrade that is recommended. I was down there looking at mine yesterday and all I could see was some rather...
