I don't really know much about motors and all that jazz, but how hard would it be to get 350 hp while staying NA?

Yeah, I learned a lot from yours and the others mentioned! The only bad thing is, I can't really do any weight reduction until I get another car. I need my 4 seats and stuff like that. But I am sure there is some stuff I can throw out :yesYou can have a pretty quick car without fi or the baby bottle. Suspension and weight reduction has brought me on the verge of breaking 11s na. Im only at 312hp/342ft-lbs. I surprise people all the time at the track. Im sure i could make an 11 second pass seeing that the weather is getting cooler but my car is down for my winter build
Nice! I have long tubes already, full bolt ons (minus intake manifold and tb) I have steeda LCAs, just bought stock springs, I am saving for 31 spline axles and LSD. Then I'll get flsfcs and struts up front. Is it true that the shocks in the rear is already good for drag?I have 4.10s, Offroad x, auburn pro posi, 31 spline axles, Jlt intake and a sct tuner. Launching at 2200-2500 because I can't hook lol. But also have h and r springs koni adjustables, and lower control arms. On a good day I know I can hit 13.4 with my current set up so hoping the k member and longtubes I'm doing next will put me in the 12s will keep you guys updated. If your doing shocks, struts I personally suggest the strange adjustables can't go wrong
Edit: oh yeah, and 4.10s with a hand held tunerNice!

I have koni adjustable rear shocks but you an use the stock rear shocks they're just fine for drag racing with a nice front suspension you can get the weight transfer you need. My h and r springs and koni struts are way to stiff up front and I get no weight transfer which explains my shitty 60 foot. Look up "tsprink" on YouTube he's running 12.6 with just bolt onsNice!

What all have you done, weight reduction wise?I have all 4 seats and its full leather with power seats heaviest interior available lol
No weight reduction and I have heavy ass chrome fr500sWhat all have you done, weight reduction wise?

the 38cc TFS heads will bump compression slightly, but enough to see 340-350 to the WHEELS as shown in the video i linked... and he was using comp cams, which im sure by using CMS, MSH, HP, or Hi tech you might see higher numbers with a better cam choice.Most of us talk rwhp not hp. 350 hp is approximatel 298 rwhp. You can get pretty close with bolt ons and cams but it is rare to hit 300 rwhp without aftermarket heads. You will not hit 350 rwhp using stock compression ratios. It will take something like 12.5:1 compression to do that.
Starting with a completely stock motor. Paying for parts and labor it costs more to hit 300 rwhp naturally aspirated than to hit 400 rwhp supercharged.
you should give me some stage 2 CMS cams :naughty:Good post. Those numbers are easy these days with TFS heads. Stock bottom end, 38cc TFS and CMS Stage 2.5 n/a........BAM!
Hell ya they do......you should give me some stage 2 CMS cams :naughty:
i hear they like N20 on an NA motor
NotedHell ya they do......
Heads can boost compression very slightly, other then that theres not much you can do to raise compression other then dip into some fund for another block or build the block you currently have, heads are pretty expensive not like the original 5.0 motors where all whole setup is 2,000. The trick flow heads for the 2v are pricey and if your not installing them yourself its gonna be a pretty hefty labor charge ive heard guys pay from $500 all the way to $1500 for head install plus you want to have it tuned.Dumb question, heads will boost the compression, right? What else could I do to get the compression where I want? But the tf heads and cams should run about how much money? And how many hours of labor would that be? And with the cams I'll probably need valve springs and stuff like that right?
