Id bet a well built engine will gain power as it brakes in more and more.

I have a similair engine to that ,410 trick flows 11to 1 237/243 roller cam . used to make 392rwhp and all done by 5800. max power was @ 5500 and did a best of 11.4 @ 120 mph at the track. New trick flow set up now 425@5955 and pulls hard to 6400. Has lost a little of torque peak but holds a flat torque curve till at least 5600. Will be taking to the drags before christmas but waiting for my new Tachometer to arrive first and will report back.
We should build an engine and ship it to a half a dozen different dynos around the country and see the results, they did the same thing with flow benches and a cylinder head at one time....
that is a good idea , who pays the freight charges and any dyno fees if any ?We should build an engine and ship it to a half a dozen different dynos around the country and see the results, they did the same thing with flow benches and a cylinder head at one time....

I know someone that had ported Edelbrock heads on a 416, purchase a set a Trick Flows, installed them and with no other changes other a small bump in compression, car runs the same ET.
I’ll drive it around!!that is a good idea , who pays the freight charges and any dyno fees if any ?
Superstock! Yes cam change, inlet manifold and heads. Old cam was Hughs 234/238 new cam custom (B3) 237/243 with 1.6 rockers for a 610 lift on a 112 lobe separation and went from rpm air gap back to my old 340 victor and went .028 cometic head gaskets for approx 11.1 comp. Up from about 10.6. I dropped torque but torgue curve was flatter and held on where old torque curve had a quick spike at about 4 grand but fell off quickly. Car feels better on the road even at low revs but goes insane when it gets in the power band.It was possible that torque was only lower due to lean cond when he gave it full throttle on the dyno and only recovered at around 4 grand so with a bit of tunning my torque levels would of showed more.

i'll help with gas money , be very interestingI’ll drive it around!!
agree on that went from a fully ported air gap to a victor 340 0n my 426 stroker and car was better all around , instead of going dead at 5800 rpm it pulled up past 6500IMO, between the added cam duration (minor) and the single plane (major) is where the torque loss comes into play. Nice curves.
Get RAMM to build it and we can dyno it at his place, Nick's Garage Montreal, somewhere else around Toronto and I could take it to 2 shops with Dynos in Winnipeg....i'll help with gas money , be very interesting

I assumed it would be a small block Mopar...Sure, what do we want built? And who is the impartial 3rd party we send the results too? J.Rob

They do work really really well for making torque and in a heavy vehicle, that’s the ticket. For a street bound vehicle, not overly concerned about ultimate HP and top end speed, the dual plane is the way to go. Lots of torque down low and in the mid range to make for a happy and fun street driving experience.I've said for years that the only way I'd ever use a dual plane intake on a sb stroker was if it was a low compression, torque monster intended for a truck. Never on a performance build.

If your not in the street, or very limited on the street, I think you would have to be nutz to run a dual plane.
Everything is in the combo which is hopefully designed right for the task at hand. A single plane intake on a 4 inch arm stroker, 850, etc... not a 20+ mpg machine....
It’s the hills in which the you live in that are killing the mileage. Mine ‘18-5.7 will top 25+ easy on the flat lands.This is true. Hell, I wish my 5.7 Ram would get 20+ mpg.
