Fuel Injection

[Ed Wright]

Jeff, you need to go trade some beer for Lloyd's car, or hire James to build your engines.
You need a new calculator if you took the LT1 engine specs and came up with 12-1 compression. The GM heads Top Stock used were LT4, much bigger ports. That engine came in some 1996 Corvettes, and Pontiac Firehawks that SLP built for GM. That is not what Mr Decker and I have. I don't have an engine building business like you, nor a professionally built engine. I cobble my junk together best I can in my 2 car garage here at home, using all I can afford on Social Security. I'm not wealthy like you.
Do you ever hook up the other two barrels?

You missed my point. The heads we run on the dp cars have much smaller runners than that head, the LT4 I think you said. You and Decker got the same motor? They both 275/279. I can't run with the fast cars. There are more slow ones, than fast ones. We are a small community. I think I will put a 5.7 motor in my car and run ss/ja. Ain't that your class? Ed, you really have to expand your horizon. You have wore out the big valve, big port etc. Maybe the 70 MM cam or something like that. Let me think about it, and my people will get back to you.

Jeff, I clearly said the LT4 was a different heads. Not what we can run.
Read it again. Maybe wait until tomorrow before you hit the beer again.

I hope you know big head flow is where the power is? I know you sell cars, so maybe ask "your guys". The only way that 360" could be slow would be somebody not trying. Nobody knowledgable would look at the 360" DP blueprint specs vs the LT1 specs would say the 360" should not be rated a good bit higher than the LT1, much less lower like it is. Ray Charles in his present condition could see that. Especially if they talked to a cylinder head shop about the flow numbers. I have talked to two SS head porting shops. Was told the same thing by both. "No was an LT1 should be able to run with a 360" DP." I would hope by now you would know what a big deal the heads are. Ask James Caro about cylinder heads. Ask Sammy P, next time he comes in, if the heads aren't the big deal. Everybody else seems to know. That 1000 CFM throttle body doesn't hurt either. I flowed mine, under 700 CFM.
Heck, Jeff, won't your car fit SS/JA with a 360"? You can probably get them to let you. LOL Pull some weight out. I'll help you get some badly needed hp.
Sober up Jeff. LMBO
