top end kit dyno graphs


I dont understand why more people are not getting the top end kits from companies like holley, trick flow, and edelbrock. I would really like to see dyno graphs, magazines should make themselves usefull and do a comparison shoot out. Anyone have dyno graphs? Trying to see if the trick flow is worth it since they are all rated at basically the same horsepower..

When you do find graphs or comparisons, make sure you look at the overall power and torque curves for the different combinations, not just the peak numbers. Peak looks good on paper and charts but average works better at the track.

I remember a buddy got a holly topend kit and it was in the 270hp range, with just under 300lbft. I was not impressed and he was devistated.

the A/R did swing up to 17:1, so there was room for another 15hp or so.

Yea but see how we are just saying the horsepower there are not many actual graphs. Would the edelbrock kit make over 300 rwhp?
