I’ve got a 440 30 over, 9.75 to 1 compression, comp cam 510 lift. 440 source ported heads, tunnel ram with two 600 carbs. With headers. What kind of hp should I have?
i'd hazard a guess of 247/254 (their nostalgia plus piece)Cam duration @050?
This is a huge help to have that number
Are you thanking the highest numbered guess?? Just curious......Thanks for your wisdom
Do the price is right and guess 501 hp and you winAre you thanking the highest numbered guess?? Just curious......
If the correct gear and converter are in it.Looks like it's set up for drag racing. You'll know how much power it's making after the first couple passes. MPH and weight will give you a better hp estimate than us.
More info about the cam and heads would make guesstimating easier and more accurate.It’s a 74 colt drag car that is now street legal. Haven’t had it to a track yet. It’s 2000 pounds. Set up for 1/8 . It can get up and go. Was just wondering about power. Thanks for looking.
Reminds me of a guy I met a long while back that had the Arrow and a small block running low 9’s through exhaust manifolds.It’s a 74 colt drag car that is now street legal. Haven’t had it to a track yet. It’s 2000 pounds. Set up for 1/8 . It can get up and go. Was just wondering about power. Thanks for looking.
6.00 or less in the 1/8 at over 112 mphIt’s a 74 colt drag car that is now street legal. Haven’t had it to a track yet. It’s 2000 pounds. Set up for 1/8 . It can get up and go. Was just wondering about power. Thanks for looking.
Not enough camshaft, my guess is 450-475 HP depending on head work.My guess around 500 hp. Depends on how well ported the heads are.
reminds me of a quote from my buddy who works on big ships when i asked him how much horsepower one of those giant diesels made: all of it.More than a go cart and less than a cargo ship.
