Thirdgen89GTA Wrote:Squrrel, after your discussion about how a 50hp engine in a car could reach the same terminal top speed as a 500hp engine in said car your judgement is suspect.First of all KMA on the judgement ok. A.S.E. say I know what I'm talking about.
Who ported the heads? What was done to them? What is the cam profile, centerline, LSA, lift, duration...(or is it too secret to post). What intake is it? Custom sheet metal? If not, what aftermarket intake? or is it a ported stocker.
the 4.0 Ford V6 isn't known for power. It does not have as large of a aftermarket as say a ford 5.0 V8, or a chevy sb.
I say BS on the 400hp if its n/a and not sprayed. Lets see either a dyno, or a time slip showing the ET and Trap Speed.
Second, I can honestly tell you(I know I'm gonna catch shit for this) but I have NO clue what has been done or by who. I bought the truck exactly how it sits. Like I said as soon as I can fix some problems with it I will get it on a dyno and get it to the track. If it does not have what I said(which is what I was told I will be the first to say.)
List of whats wrong as of right now,
1: miss fire
2: needs new exhaust, headers are fine but after that it dumps to the passenger side door giving no back pressure, therefore no scavenging.
3: No turn signals, wiring harness problem
4: plates suspended for no emissions compliance(Just haven't gone to take the test)
5:NO BRAKES
6:New clutch: fried this one pulling my brothers car off of a tow dolley.
Once I fix those 6 things I will put it on a dyno. And like I said if I come up with 300 or less I will bow down and say I was wrong, but as of right now I am going by what I was told.
Edit Dan go rape a cow!
IT'S ALL ABOUT THE PAIN; THE INK AND THE JEWELRY ARE JUST SOUVENIERS
