RE: Derek, what do you think of the Lunati replacement

By Norm F. - 03/12/2002 11:06:00 PM; IP 152.163.201.63

Well Mike back to your original question...... as others have suggested you need a little more cam to get into the 12s . Something around 232Deg on the intake and maybe a little more on the exhaust side with an LSA of 110 to 112 , lift is not as critical , .515 to .550 should do it. If you go to a solid cam then pick something around 235 to 240 Deg with the same or a little more lift.Your car probably weighs around 3700 lbs with you in it . You will need 10 to 10.5 to 1 compression , headers and a good exhaust 2.5 or 3 in dia. A stock CJ or PI type intake with a carb around 750 cfm will do it with 3.89-1 to 4.30-1 gears , shift point 6000-6200RPM.
Note my 68 1/2 GT runs 13.5 and I shift at 5500RPM as I have a milder cam with street tires and a lousy 60 foot time so getting you into the 12s with the right comb is doable and won't ruin the drivability of your car.

This thread, so far...
