Torque Monster 350

I just got my motor runnin finally and it is amazing!!! Its a total torque monster and you feel it rip you into your seat at 3000rpms and thats being slightly gentle with it for the break in...

Check my sig for the specs and feel free to ask questions

Im just so freakin excited about how well it turned out

thanks to everyone on the board for all the help you gave me and special thanks to Atilla the fun for the great cam recommendation (I chose 112LSA instead of 110 but same otherwise) and insight into what I need to make sure I take care of...

It runs amazing and all thats left is the tune up it needs =D

I assume you upgraded from a V6 or a 305 to be impressed by a 350? You should feel the torque of my 540

Re: Torque Monster 350

Did you have the engine dynoed or are those numbers in your sig just estimates?

Yeah upgraded from a 305... on the low end you can feel the difference on the top end it still feels the same but Im still happy =D and I bet that is awesome! If I had the money or the time to do that I would try building one myself =D

Those are just estimates unfortunately but I have some dyno time coming after the break in and the new exhaust
