Power Valve Selection

So thats interesting you bring up that Carb List... So I was not able to find the part number (0-80459SA) on there. Unless using the "Find" feature online isnt actually bringing up that number.

This car has only been street driven with a couple hard pulls for kicks. But mostly just daily driving activities. On the high way it is not bad. handles passing and getting up to speed just fine. But to be honest, I have always been heavy on the throttle because like a child, I still like to hear the engine roar lol. Ill try the "moderate" throttle the next time I have it out to see if I can gather any more information.

thank you for the tune for performance. Seems pretty basic and Ill give that a try.



So I am not to sure on the compression... I know it is running the 906 heads, but the heads were shaved, block was decked and I am not to sure what pistons were used/head gasket thickness (I may have found that out at some point)(this whole car was built by my late father and before I knew anything more than turning a wrench). My dad "claimed" the compression was 12:1 after he talked to the machine shop, but from what I was reading online you do not do that to a 440 with iron heads for the street. And his main objective was for a street car with no track use, so that 12:1 has to be bogus. So any guess is a good guess.



When I get some time Ill give that a go. Summit said it wouldnt ship the jets today regardless of when I ordered them over the weekend. So once I have parts and time in hand Ill give this another go ahead.
You can get a cheap borescope that will plug into your smartphone. Cheap. Like under 20 bucks and you can SEE what type of pistons you have and even see how high they come up in the bore at TDC.
