    Here's an interesting dyno shootout 160 cfm head on a 306, 333 & 393.

    The 160 cfm heads made 1.91 hp per cfm on the 306 (306hp), 2.2 hp per cfm on the 333 (352hp) & 2.41 hp per cfm on the 393 (387hp). They all had different cams, got larger as displacement went up which would also be contributing factor. Be kind of like if we did a 318 vs 360 vs 408 with stock...

    Anyone knows anything about PW SBM Head?

    Just wondering if anyone knows anything about these PW SBM Head? I'm guessing there just someone else's head rebranded for Canada. Cad there $1,500 bare and $2,500 complete that's like $1,100-1,800 Usd, good thing is I can just pick them up locally. Don't like they flowed it on a 4.25" bore...

    What would it take to make 1.44 lbs-ft per cid ?

    I'm wondering what would it take to make a pump gas 365 engine make about 526 lbs-ft @ 4,000 rpm and 514 hp @ 5,900 rpm basically a very similar power curve to the Trick Flow 408 in the dyno graph I'm using as a theoretical goal, doesn't have to use any of the same parts just probably make a...

    SBM head velocities and there application?

    ...wrong, feel free to post. But I figured we'd start here with these. Induction Formulas Average_CSA = Port_Volume_CC / (Port_CenterLine_Length * 16.387) MIN CSA = (Bore x Bore x Stroke x RPM x .00353) / 613.8 (.55 MACH) Port_Volume_CC = Average_CSA * Port_CenterLine_Length * 16.387...

    Here you go, Piston area and force.

    That's like your opinion man :) Maybe were looking from the same from you. It's not instance hp cause your not factoring in stroke or displacement depending on the eg.. This formula has nothing really to do with what were talking about lol.

    David Vizard - Which to prioritize - PORT FLOW or PORT VELOCITY?

    Save the suspense, His answer is port velocity. At 20:00 he gives formulas for velocity, but they don't seem to work.

    Low speed torque and driveability ?

    We generally speak like Low speed torque and driveability is synonyms with each other, I have myself but the more I think of it there seems to be a flaw with this line of thought. A lot of times when we see an upgrade that loses low speed torque the consensus seems driveability will suffer, but...

    Poll for Minimum Torque for a performance street Machine?

    Just curious what would you consider minimum acceptable torque in the 3500-4500 rpm range for a decent street machine ? What would you consider ideal torque in the 3500-4500 rpm range ? And is it possible to have too much torque ? I'm talking in the street not on a track.

    Does this prove David Vizard's 128 lsa formula ?

    The examples he give shows mid torque gains with going with a tighter lsa but was that really even in question ? But to me the gains aren't large enough to say it proves DV's formula, if anything it disproves it cause to me for the formula to be valid being a few degrees off of calculated lsa in...

    Questions about velocity.

    ...a somewhat decent velocity self rectify a little by rpm ? Pic I borrowed from Earlie A Average_CSA = Port_Volume_CC / (Port_CenterLine_Length * 16.387) MIN CSA = (Bore x Bore x Stroke x RPM x .00353) / 613.8 (.55 MACH) Port_Volume_CC = Average_CSA * Port_CenterLine_Length * 16.387...

    Port velocity average target fps?

    What average target fps should you be shooting for and how much for different levels of builds like daily driver street to like pro stock? Is there kind of formula or guild or rule of thumb for target fps? So far mainly from Speier Racing Heads that he seem to target 310-350, he stated 350 fps...

    Moving "Mopar Performance Issues"

    To me "Mopar Performance Issues" and "Mopar Racers Forum" should be at the top of "Mopar Technical Forum" and "Mopar General Discussions" should be where the racers forum is, Mopar Performance Issues don't get used much where it is and should be closer where performance discussions are.

    Why would low lift head flow hurt power?

    Cylinder Head Design - CHP How It Works "A larger valve diameter will almost always produce higher 0.100- to 0.200-inch flow figures, which can be counterproductive to making power. /// For race engines we use larger valves, but are able to reduce the 0.100- to 0.200-inch flow even further with...

    Engines with lack bottom end power?

    I thought the general consensus was engines that were soft down low in the rpm band was a lack of torque. But I've been noticing that built engines of all type even high rpm still make decent power down low generally far better than a stock low power version of itself some on par or better than...
