What made you swap the Stealth for the RPM?Air gap or non?

Nice times by the way..with a dead gear!!Damn...the weight helps that alot though I bet.Impressive.

MIKE 1985

thanks.

I was using the Stealth, as to try and not cut a hole in the hood, the nitrous plate deleted that option. Someone from another board told me Super Chevy did a dyno comparison between the Stealth and RPM air gap and the air gap made 24 more HP. I did not see the article, my engine builder likes the edelbrock RPM so i went with it. I use the regular one.

sleepybu

what do you think of your ravin mufflers

MIKE 1985

for me their too loud. I would prefer something quieter. But then again i would like it be the same loudness as my Taurus.

I'm getting old

Where did you buy the canfiedls from. I am considering the 195cc/72cc canfields for a 406 that is at the machinist right now.

I called competition products but am worried about the howards brand components CP uses in the bare canfield castings. I just don't want unknown products to be used in the valvetrain.

Basically I am down eithere the jegs or a set of Kenny Duttweiler TFS 23deg heads. But if your canfields check out ok I may call them. THanks, Steve

MIKE 1985

The 195's come with a 65CC combustion chamber. If you have a healthy 406 you might want to look at the larger head ?

I am happy with mine, i had my engine builder check them over and he said they did a good job.

BTW, when we assembled the engine i needed longer.100 pushrods ( i decked the block some) and he gave me an off brand 1 piece pushrod ( something teck).. I asked him about this as they were $80. He said that's the company that makes them for everyone, Comps just put thei name and package on them and charge $130. Same thing with Valve springs on another motor i had him do, he used Engine PRO valve springs, apparently they make them foe comp.

Mike did you buy them from competition products? I believe their springs and valves go under the name Howards if I remember right. When I talked to them the larger chamber was an option. And for what I am doing with 406 any 200cc runner will work. Nothing real wild but should put down some nice #'s. Thanks

MIKE 1985

Yes, i bought them from comp. prod. He told me they have had 1 set come back in the 6 yrs they have been selling them.

Sorry, a little off topic, but my friend has a 95 vette and he can't get it to hook worth a damn. What kind of suspension work have you done?

MIKE 1985

took the front sway bar off and put on slicks. The best 60' with TPI and a 150 shot was 1.64 on the M&H muscle car Dot tire. My car runs 1.88 60's on stock street tires.

Is his an auto or stick ?

Free Bird

iTrader: (1)

His is a stick. He made one blast on nitto's, and literally blasted them. 2.3 short time and a ET of 12.89. The mph was nice 118.78 but he didn't hook worth poo.

MIKE 1985

Well those stick cars are hard to get hooked up with drag radials. Some of the guys on corvetteforum.com ( in the drag race section) could give better advice. My advice is just put a slick on it and launch at 3000, becarefull though, as stick cars and sticky tires DO break D-44 rear ends.
