As for exhaust, we bolted on a set of Hooker 15/8-inch headers along with a 2½-inch exhaust system plumbed to a pair of Flowmaster mufflers. This gear is not cheap, but it does work. This also required a special melonized GM distributor gear to ensure the gear would live when used with the GM Performance Parts HOT hydraulic roller camshaft. Moore elected to use an old Stinger electronic ignition distributor to trigger the MSD 6 box used on Westechs dyno. So we trucked this iron-headed small-block out to Westech Performance and let John Baechtel and Steve Brulé abuse this Mouse on their SuperFlow dyno. The best part is that we did all this for under $2,500.īut going in, we only guessed how much power this engine was going to crank out.
By rebuilding a one-piece rear-main seal, hydraulic roller cam small-block using cast pistons and a stack of high-perf GM Performance Parts goodies, we estimated over 400 hp. In the previous story we introduced you to budget-buildup artist Tim Moores 355ci small-block featuring its stock Vortec iron heads, GM Performance Parts HOT cam, and 9.75:1 compression ratio. Now well show you how anybody can do it. Its tough to come up with an improvement on the wheel, and when it comes to small-block Chevy engines, it used to require considerable skill to make 400 hp with stock iron heads and a streetable camand all this on a budget. So I can get this combo up and running? I have built an ALDL cable interface to data log once I get it up and running.Some things are difficult to improve. I am reworking my wiring harness to remove all the pollution equipment, rear 02 sensorsĭoes anyone have a tune for a 元1 Vortec 350 running a mild cam and headers that would get me close I’m going to run the LT4 “Hot Cam” with 1.6 rockers, long tube headers and 24.lb per hour blue top fuel injectors, a Truck MAF and stock Map sensor I have built a 383 Stroker LT1 engine for my car with ported Factory aluminum heads that have been milled, should be good for 11.5 compression. The rest is just “Re-pinning” of the harness to the new PCM. Position sensor in the timing chain cover,I’ve already got most of the necessary pieces on hand. Since my ‘96 has the reluctor wheel/ crankshaft The dizzy willįunction as just that, a cap and rotor to fire the plugs. I am in the process of converting my ‘96 Trans Am to a 0411 PCM, basically, going to eliminate theĮlectronics of the LT1 “Optispark” distributor by wiring the engine as a 元1 Vortec 350. I want to open up by saying I’m very impressed by the knowledge and experience shown
