tom,
i am from the crossfire forum and had a question. i have an oppotunity to buy a small block 400 to go with my 84 vette and was just curious with what modifications you had to do to make it run right in your t/a.
i was in the process of building a 350 with L98 aluminum heads, but i think i may be better off with the 400, what do you think?

 

Hey whats up!
I can't get on the forum right now, b/c I can't from work, and my computer at home is screwed up.

Anyway, to make the 400 run pretty d@mn good, I HAD to port my intake to the max, install 75 lb/hr injectors (from a 454) and the vacuum referenced fuel presure regulator. I bored the TB's but I don't think that was necessary. The big engine needs more air and fuel. Thant's all.

I would do it agian over a 350. I have NO MONEY in the combo, and I can out run stock LS-1's in the 1/4 all day long.

 

thanks,
we miss you over on the forum. do the 454 injectors fit without any modifications?

 

Thanks for the compliment

Yes the 454 injectors slide right in. They look exactly like the one you have right now. Easy.
