Re: 300rwhp tpi combo?

I have a set up that is similar to that, and yes you should be good.

Since you have Dyno don's headers I assume you know he is only about fifteen minutes from where you are, right?

I don't think we have a dyno day scheduled right at the moment but you may want to monitor the so cal forum, if you don't already

Re: 300rwhp tpi combo?

This is funny I'm also going to be running the same sort of setup for my 91 bird to replace the old 3.1

I purchased what i'm told is a used 355 engine that was pulled and build up a few years ago (no paperwork) she has a stock base tpi setup with wide runners comp cams 520 lif & roller rockers, ported alum vette heads , bored 30 over, mainly springs, double roller timing chain, 700r4 with all wiring and everything i would need to bolt it into my V6 shell

I also ordered a black first tpi intake and a fully coated (inside and out) se of DynoDons with the 2 cat y-pipe I still need to order the ram air box from hawks to make my RAII hood functional

I just wish I had more info on the actual heads and cam that are the engine
so I could try to figure out the #'s with the combo but I guess I will have to wait till after the install and tune
