Nobody seems to have my setup.... hence another "how mu

foxstang · February 26th, 2007, 06:40 PM

Ok here it is. I have read a ton of threads trying to find someone who has a similiar setup as mine to figure out how much horsepower and torque I shoud get. My local track opens up in about a month and I was hoping to have an idea of what the car might run. I have a 306 with edelbrock preformer 5.0 (1.90 2.02) heads, f-cam, bbk-ssi intake, 75mm tb, 75mm mass air, 30lb. injectors, bbk shorties, x-pipe (no cats) two chamber flows, 3.73 gears, 255lph pump, adjustable fuel pressure regulator. The motor is fresh with only about 12k on it. Any ideas or does anybody have the same or similiar setup? Any comments would be great. thanks

sorry I left a few things out. I have an Ibock pro kit suspention, and its a GT with a 5 speed but i have taken the back seat and other junk out of the back. also i will be running on both slicks and et streets

With a 5 speed (or a good auto and converter) and slicks mid 12s should be no problem.

id say with a good hooking launch on slicks you could go 12.00s depending on how you drive. we have stock motors on a 150 shot around here going mid 12s suspension only. i would see a h/c/i suspension car doing alot better.

89StangGT · February 26th, 2007, 07:06 PM

also that is alot of injector. and longtubes would probably do you better than the shorties.

well the only reason i have the 30's is cus a friend of mine bought a stock 5.0 with a bcam that had the 30's on it and wanted to trade me straight over for them. i couldnt say no. the only thing i hate is i live in amarillo which is at the top of texas and the elevation is kinda high here so my actual times may be a bit slower but i was hoping for high 12's. now i am a little more confident. there was a guy on another forum that was trying to say i should only put out 285hp at the most. lol i think thats a little low.

that guy is a retard.
