450rwhp

Well, my current setup is a zz 383 crate motor 425hp with 460ftlbs flywheel with a superram intake,bbk 52mm throttle body, and a d1sc procharger. I was thinking of removing the d1sc procharger completely and trying to just go all motor. Is my motor capable of making 450rwhp without the blower. would a bigger cam be able to do this power increase. here is the break down on my motor:
- 4340 forged crank
- forged rods
- hypercautic pistons 9.5 to 1
- 222/230@50 509/528 with 112
- dougs long tubes
- Fast burn heads with gm 1.5 roller rockers
- stage II stewart water pump
- accel superram unported
- bbk 52 mm throttlebody
- 42lb svo injectors
currently making 400rwhp with blower but the procharger is just giving me a headache i am thinking all motor might be a little bit more streetable. any ideas?

Re: 450rwhp

Is it just me or does 400 RWHP on a D1 procharged setup seem low??? My friends 305 (YES 305) with a D1SC is putting down 381rwhp. I've seen his dyno sheet, seen the video and know his setup. Stock bottom end, just world products heads and headers. Stock TPI intake.

Re: 450rwhp

How much boost was the car puttin out at peak? What was the AFR? I'm taking a guess in thinking you might have been running lean with those injectors possibly. Did you just put a "chip" in, have someone else tune or did you DIY tune ?

Re: 450rwhp

well i was getting like 50 to 60 psi max and then it was running out of fuel, u think that the svo 42's might be to small.

Re: 450rwhp

You mean 5 to 6 PSI right? The 42's could be a bit small. There's tons of calculators around to determine that. I run 60#'s and know I won't run out of fuel.
