| By neverenough - 05/09/2006 2:26:47 AM; IP 207.177.60.35 |
hey im new to this site but i wanted to see what you guys thought of this build
std bore 390 block, 390 crank,360 rods, and pistons(didnt think theyd work but come up to damn near the top of the cylinder), ported c8ae-h heads, headers, edelbrock performer rpm cam kit with their valvesprings, 750cfm edelbrock carb, and a weind high rise open plenum intake that was port matched. its in a 76 4x4 ford1/2 ton truck with a four speed and 3.50 gears im planning on another build for this truck and im thinking on building the 390 that came with the truck(it wasnt original)
its already .040 over and the cylinders look good just have them honed and the block cleaned with flat top pistons and ported 390gt heads with a similar cam and intake combo with a little bigger carb(maybe 850 demon) im not planning on pulling with the truck but i do mud drag it at times
it runs real good now just a little weak under 1500rpm's but realy picks up around 2500rpm,s and would any body have a ballpark figure of power i got im hoping for around325 but not sure if i got it
id appriciate the advice
thanks |
