Well I dug through all of my papers/receipts/crap I have on my desk..
My GT40P's came w/flow chart,


At .500 lift they are;
233 Intake
182 Exhaust


In comparison stock out of the box Twist Wedge heads at .500 lift are;
242 Intake
170 Exhaust

Ok after getting parts, getting wrong parts, returning parts, re-ordering dif parts, ect.
Here's the list so far..

BBK inner fender CAI
GT40 Intake - ported/matched
70mm TB
80mm MAF
24# injectors
GT40P heads - ported
Crane Energy 1.7 rockers
FRP e303 cam
FRP GT40P headers - Shortie's
Granatelli in-tank 190lph fuel pump

That should be enough to get it started lol
I need to pick up a Trickflow intake in the near future.

Somewhere in the mix of ordering mass quantities of parts I forgot that I am going to need valve covers which clear my rockers.

While I was perusing for a set I came across a set of Polymer ones. Yes, like plastic!
Think I'll pass on those..
Found a couple nice set's of aluminum ones chrome plated.
Then there's the raw sheet metal ones..
Decisions decisions..

Im suprised some company like APC never made a set out of clear lexan.
Actually that would look kinda cool.. Hmm..

09-17-2008, 08:30 PM
Dont know if this is an option but like the LS heads do they make a spacer for the cover??

Jay

Yea BBK makes a spacer, but I just assume buy covers.
I think it's like $100 for the spacers?
Thats about what a complete set of covers cost

GM used plastic valve covers on their v6's in the 90's until they were recalled and aluminum ones replaced them. Get some aluminum ford racing ones!

09-18-2008, 04:02 PM
Actually I was looking at a set identicle to those ones.

Jay
09-18-2008, 07:38 PM
But I bought these instead..

Thick flanges on them. Shouldnt have any sealing probs.
Im pretty impressed w/the look.

I think those are the exact ones I have. Nice pieces. I had to remove the baffles in them to get them to fit. I just took a redbull can and cut it to fit where the baffles screwed in and it works great and clears the rockers.

Hmm I really did not wana have to go that route.. lol
They told me this would clear rockers & girdles. *shrug*

I was just impressed w/the thickness of them. Plus they look pretty nice.

They may just look like mine. They may be tall enough to clear?

Dood I dont even know.. lol
What did I NOT get would be the easier question.

I just keep buying more/new shit every day..
Stopped at Griff's yesterday and dropped off half a dozen mroe box's.. Matt just laughed and said it looked like xmas lol.

I had an idea of money I wanted to spent and goals to attain, and that envelope just kept getting pushed til it fell clear off of the table.
Really what it has come down to is put the $ and parts on it and keep it for a toy to take out and beat on.

Think I am gona swap the wheels/tires over to my vert and get some draglight's for this sucker next.

Jay
11-23-2008, 04:31 PM
Sounds pretty good minus the insane exhaust leak where the prev exhaust sucked.
I got a new h-pipe and starter tubes to go to the mufflers, then gone run turn-downs.

The intake being painted silver/blue just doesnt look too great w/the chrome valve covers.. So I picked up a couple lbs of chrome powdercoat lol. I also got matte black, and translucent candy blue which is used over chrome (wanted to see what it looked like).

Jay
11-23-2008, 05:35 PM
These wheels are sick.
I wanted to get them for my car.. then I decided I just wana get a coupe instead lol.

Well I got a 74 model 351 block,
Windsor sr. Heads with 202 valves and port work
Victor efi intake
Knife edged forged crank
Forged h beam rods
Still need to buy pistons and a cam

I'm havin jay allen at camshaft innovations custom make me one.

On3 is making my turbo kit. It comes with everything
76mm turbo, which should be enough to push the limits of the motor.

Still need injectors a maf and in line pump.

Everything is going to be balanced as I intend on boosting the shit outta this thing. I'm lookin for 800hp. Go big or go home!

02-28-2009, 03:19 PM
Pretty cool Jay, I've been kind of thinking of getting a 351 too. It's somewhat cheaper than going the dart route, but I just haven't decided. The dart block would be stronger, but I sure as hell don't need anything over 700-800 HP for the street. lol

Your going to need more than an inline pump for that kind of HP too. I'd just look into a fuel cell and an external pump or something with braided AN lines to the front.

That thing ought to be a mean SOB!

External pump is what I was talking about.

351 is def the cheaper route vs a dart block. You have to figure in the cost of all the little things too though. I have seen numerous ppl putting down 800-1k hp on stock 351 blocks.

I think Mike is going to half fill the block too. It's all at his shop right now.

Jay
03-08-2009, 04:46 PM
I dont have the spec sheets here, theyre at Griffs.
Two t3/t4's

I got a complete kit, but the downpipes will need modification due to using the 351 block, as well as the cold side piping will need changed for my intake ect.

As soon as I get it all unboxed ect. I'll start mocking it all up, taking pics, and start a thread about it.
