Build combos

[schacher94gt]

With my car being sold in the near future I was starting to look at build combos and was wondering what dyno numbers and track numbers everyone was doing and what combo you ran. I may have a clean, stock 185k mile notch to start with so im really debating on just building a 347 and throwing that in this winter, obvisouly a better idea, than throwing HCI at a tired motor thatll be beat. If i build the 347 itll be around 10:1 compression.

So heres what im thinking whether i go with a 347 or jus the 302.
-afr 165....afr 185 if i go 347 bc ill do the notched pistons
-custom cam
-i have a performer intake laying around, think i should use it or is there something better
-3.73s
-LTs/full exhaust
-1.7 rockers
-than little things such as the MAF, 24# injectors, and TB
-and a clutch

really looking to put down around 400 at the wheels and getting it into the 11s. What do you guys think? Also might throw a 50-75 shot on it...

Or i just buy my buddies hatch that runs mid 11s for 6500 but i really want a notch bc the mean stance and weight

There's noway your going to get 400 RWHP out of a 302. Not with the parts you have listed there. You might get there, but the money required would be stupidly expensive. A 347 is going to be difficult with those parts, but not impossible. My buddy has a 347 10.5:1, afr205's, 1.7's 1 3/4 long tubes with 3 inch exhaust, RPM2 intake and is hoping to see 400-425 aat the wheel.I'd say with what you have listed your going to need something else still and a really aggessive tune to hit 400. Good luck and let us know how it works out

I bought my buddies hatch instead. But if someone trades me a notch for my car ill still build it.i shouldn't say i want a desired hp bc I jus wanna run low 12s n/a

buying your friends car was smart. You wouldve had over 5k in a motor build to get it into the 12's. Not to mention supporting mods and everything

408 stroker, AFR205's, yadda yadda yadda. Run low 11's all day and it will last forever.
