it was a golen engine built 383 w/ afr cnc’d lt4 heads and the lt4 intake manifold, 30 lb injectors, a pussy ass cam and it only put down 385rwhp, 412tq. with a better tune i think it might of been a much better car, plus that mid 12 slip was my first time ever on a track, and the last time for that car, it def had more in it
those heads are a good start and that shortblock aint bad either. golens current 480hp motor has a 236/244 cam…which is around what i’d run. thats some good numbers…but probly should have more in it. 500hp in a fbody should definately be trappin near 117-118 and go mid 11’s on tire.
what cam did it have in yours? i thought it was the cc306? which is kinda a mild cam for a 383
heres the thing, dude seen what my old setup did. i have no plans of gong backwards in ET only forward a few seconds. so for the dude to run his mouth and have no idea what hte situation is just as lame as some other things. and heres anothe thing its sad when you need a power adder to be or hang with a NA motor
yea, thats the cam it had, if teh motor was setup better and had a good tune, it would of put down more impressive numbers and ran better, and 500hp in an f-body is gonna be pretty damn fast man
NA excludes NOS you know right? Anyhow, he doesn’t need a power adder to hang with an NA truck, you need a displacement increase to hang with a factory stock truck!
would you n/a bitches quit complaining about f/i people. You should have been smarter in the beginning and either built a motor for boost or bought an already boosted car/truck from factory. You sound like 2 year olds “but he has a blower”, STFU.
Factory stock includes the blower. Quick can increase displacment with a bore and stroke change, and the lightening can increase “displacement” with a pulley change. So I bet the lightening will win if quick will race a domestic truck even though its supercharged, and maybe a full moon, and may be a leap year, and might be his time of the month, and his tune might almost be done, and he has the right gas, and he ate breakfast, and he has all the screws in he lisense plate, and none of the rubber has torn off any of his wipers, and his hair doesnt hurt, and his floor mat doesn’t get stuck under the gas pedal, and he didn’t forget to remove the fuel filling nozzle at the gas station and drive off with it still in his tank…
im not aruging about f/i, i dont mind it at all, if i had money id do a turbo or a nice s/c set up in a second, but i dont, i was just sayin that since quik started the he has a s/c on his car to keep up wiht n/a cars, then he said u need more cubes to keep up with f/i, im not taking any sides, if u notice what build im doing the car is going to able to run f/i if i ever go that route, soo stfu and read stupid old hick :idb:
first off, a pulley doesn not change displacment, the arrgument ppl bring forward is, say a cobra, has a 4.6, and the s/c is a 2.2 soo that then makes a 6.8 motor, but i dont really belive that theory tho. no body ever said changin a pulley will add displacemnt, mr. know it all u should konw that a pulley change will just spin the screws faster thats all. i never knew a change of pulley would add more cubes to a blower. Soo wait if u say that, then me puttin a smaller pulley on my cranks should increase my motors cubes?!?!? awesome :hsugh:
um, static displacement does not change but “dynamic” displacement of the motor does change, for every 1atm of air inside the motor, displacement of the motor essentually doubles, everyone knows this.
Notice the " " marks around displacement when I was talkin about adding more air volume via spinning the super charger faster? I must have given you too much credit to asume you could understand that. Let me go back an elementy level so we can get on the same page. Displacement= potential volume of air a engine displaces. Rated in cubic inches or liters. Extremely rarely is it though that a 6.0l engine will displace 6.0l while running. (two complete crank revolution under its own power) There we run into a little thing call volumetric efficiency. under 100% and its moving less than 6.0l per two revs. Over 100% and is moving more than 6.0l. Ok so now we have a guy that has increased is baseline displacement, and increased his VE with other major mods and fine tuning. and another guy with a smaller base cube that is probably running even less efficient (super chargers rob alot of power, and generate alot of heat in the intake carge). You guys are already crying about the supercharger?
Simple question. Who do you think will win. Quick, or the lightening.
