Thanks again for the feedback guys,
I have actually seen that dual throttle bodied fiero. I was actually depating on custom fabricating an upper intake manifold. Possibly something very close to the dual TB setup in that Fiero (ironically, my second vehicle is a fiero that will be getting a v8 later). I really want to eliminate some of the length off of the upper intake manifold. This will kill off some low end, but should be okay for mid and high end.
I would understand the LT1's cfm rating, but I was not aware that it was cheaper than a quad-four unit! WOw, twice the cylinders, less cost to upgrade...
I appreciate the offer for the parts, southern94, actually I've got two more complete blocks as well.
For MustangEater8251, I will be using the same setup that is found on typical 93-95' camaros (efi). check out my page http://34v6miata.tripod.com
The cam I got (which I forgot the EXACT profile) was something like 218 int. 226 ext. and it had good lift with the stock 1.5:1 rockers, something like .460 int/.480 exh. You guys are telling me that this cam with full length headers, intake and pulleys, (some port and bowl blending) is not good for 200hp. Wow, wish I went with the all alloy caddy 4.9L with iron heads... :( (j/k)
Hey, anything is better than the stock 116 flywheel hp, and 100 flywheel torque!!!!
The self contained Procharger seems to be a reasonal choice as well (P-1SC, or D-1 series). I talked to the techs and they believe that this setup (with a good bottom end) should be good for 450-500 hp at about 18 pounds. Although, I do hate the idea of belt driven power adders...
thanks again guys...
