I got a crate engine from summit thats going in my 91 s10 with 373s, tci street fighter th400 and a 3300 converter. I am thinking about going with tpi instead of a carb. Heres the engine, http://store.summitracing.com/partde...T&autoview=sku Camshaft: .480 Int / .486 Exh & 224 Int / 230 Exh duration @ .050 - 110 degree lobe sep. I would like to go with a speed density setup, and i will most likley use megasquirt. I dont want to swap the cam, so will tpi work alright with my setup or should i ditch the idea? I searched and did not really find what i was looking for, if any of you guys know of a previous thread with this info i will be glad to read it.

From what I'm reading about my next project, your 385hp potential is gonna need some larger TPI plenum tubing. I been looking at the FIRST system because of the side mounted throttle body and larger plenum runners. They will also adapt to vortec heads with a different baseplate.

Uh... here's you a Christmas present. Summit always gaurantees not to be undersold and the crate setup you got is the one I been looking at over at Pace Performance for $500 less. Maybe I missed something but it would be worth a call to Summit to ask.

Let me know if they give you some money back. I do a LOT of business with Summit Racing and this would be another good story if they do what they say. Please update and Good Luck!!

Im bringing this one back from the dead. I really wish I would of saw that post when he posted it and gave summit a call, too late for that now lol.

I would still like to go to TPI with my crate engine heres a link with dyno numbers;

Do you guys think I could tpi that engine?
I am planning on using some type of aftermarket runners, with a stock base and plenum. I have much to learn, but the torque peaks in a good place for the tpi, but what about the horse power? Will the tpi hurt the peak hp?

thanks for any help!

Answers to most of your questions are likely in this article.

I think I am going to go with stock runners and plenum with the edelbrock base. That will be easy to find, and budget friendly. Maybe a little port work on the runners.
