The last time I had the car out, I popped a HG when the Meth didn't activate. (completely my fault) So while I had it apart, I did some polishing on the Volute and added dual nozzles for the meth. Put the car back together and it had alot of blowby, so I just put it back into storage early. New combo should be ready by summer, whatever that may be.. Was going 363.. Now I'm wondering if I should go 427.. Can't make up my god damn mind. I only want to build ONE engine for this car and be happy with it... I can justify that ridiculous amounts of money.. Once lol.
Anyhow, I took some pics. If I can find the time, I would like to smooth the engine bay when everything goes back together. I mean, I am a welder for a living lol, but I do not own a wirefeed lol..
First pic is the awesome port job on this TFSR lower and the TFS 11R's... Intake was flowed at 327 Cfm and heads flow right around 325.. Definitely insane for a stock port location SBF head... (better than 220CC AFR's

I'm going to need bigger headers.. And exhaust
I'm probably going to have to lose the side exhaust which breaks my heart but my ears will thank me... Also considering ditching the powersteering and switching to fox accessories to open up more water pump/alternator/blower mounting options. I'm getting sick of buying blower though.. A turbo sounds really tempting, but I would want something of alot nicer quality than ON3.. Maybe a CG Fab hotside and custom coldside?? Who knows.. Deciding what to build is WAAAAAAAY harder than building lol.... I would like to make at least 700rwhp though.. The 363 or 427 should handle almost double that, but pump gas is the limiting factor... And blower size..

My Roush/Yates coil wire had come loose and burned up, so there was an ugly ass FRPP one on there temporarily.. That has been fixed
I LOVE these plug wires.. No clue on the size but they are massive.. 12, 13, 14mm???

Dual nozzles knocked IAT's down 100 degrees on an 85 degree day.. Not bad. Picked up 80 horse with the extra timing (was extremely conservative)
