Looking good. Should run pretty strong. I'm anxious to see your results with the 280 XFI cam and also the results of other members of the california society. You guys have done some impressive things with TPI based systems and keeping it smog legal to boot. I'm impressed.

 

What tools did you use to do the port work? do you have anymore pics of the port work? I just picked up a SR and im lookin to do somthin like this to it! About how many hours did it take to do this?

 

Check out the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GglubFHkDFAIt s now up and running.

 

How are the bolts threaded? Tap out the runners? What if a bolt comes out and get sucked down? Anything preventative?

 

I used lock nuts. Its been like that for 13 years and never had a problem. If you notice that is a low rise Super Ram.

 

Hmmm... Just went back and looked at the pictures. I am assuming the Lt1 superram plenum? So you are using a bolt and a lock nut? Did you drill out the threads in the plenum?

 

Nope! Just screwed it in from the top then locking nut at the bottom. This super ram is for the corvette.

 

My engine builder just ran my 383- 280XFI- Brodix 200IK- SuperRam up today on a dyno out of the car..made 467HP@5500RPMs and 517TQ at the crank..hope for 11's

 

Not bad, on what tune was that?

 

I think he just used a bin that was in his computer/dyno with the Fast EFI setup. I saw him just looking at bins that matched my cubic inch and injector size.I'm going to have the car dyno chassie tuned again when its in the car with the Tunerpro/prominator. I'll prob just give the tuner guy a ARAP bin to work from and then see what he'll get to the wheels

 

Thought you may have started with mine again, just curious


VincentZ28, that car sounds great. That thing will pass smog?

 

Yes it will pass smog. Here's another video with the idle at 800rpms. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HuQNKNyVH9I

 

awesome. Next time get a outside the car rev back by the pipes. Sounds pretty deep inside the car, and that responsiveness in the throttle is insane.

 

Holy snappy throttle Batman!!! It does sound a bit choppier in that video than the first.

 

Looks and sounds like a very healthy car top to bottom.Good job,post vids of that thing making a pass or a burnout here and there...would love to see how it reacts on the road.

 

Just another one of my 355 builds that will be impressive at the track.

 

So Don, what you are saying is that you control the horsepower output of that motor.
