Tech / General EngineIs your car making a strange sound or won't start? Thinking of adding power with a new combination? Need other technical information or engine specific advice? Don't see another board for your problem? Post it here!
Hey guys, thought I'd give you a little update. I have 600 miles on the engine build. I updated a few things. I put a set of DW 48lb injectors and a GZ vacuum pump. I have the vacuum pump set at 8" of vacuum. What a difference it made! After all it's a 1/1/2mm ring package in a stock block! lol.. I will post a few videos. They don't come close to being in the car. It's a beast for NA. Small, high flowing, proper high velocity, makes it a acceleration beast!
Video of rolling at 1000 rpm, notice how fast it finds 6000+
Video of rolling in OD and notice how fast the car accelerates!
That engine of yours is one of my personal favourites. Nicely done.
As strong as it sounds, any idea on what your cruising MPG might be. Of course that means not sticking your foot in it for a tank of fuel but it would be interesting to know. Case in point is the "fleet" Chevelle. It's a 10.9x car with an LSX 454 and a real cruiser not a drag racer. 20+ (USG) highway mileage so it's not a slouch there either.
Again, well done.

Thank You! I need to check MPG. I think it would be decent.
