Vortech Build thread.

We're talking about driving it when the temp is 40 degrees cooler. SAE gives you a control horsepower, but that doesn't mean your car will not make more power when it's colder, it just means when you dyno it, it will adjust it back to the SAE corrected number. The dyno doesn't make your car slower I think you're thinking we were saying would hit 420 if he re-dyno'ed it. I was saying it will actually make that when it's colder, as in performance.

Yup.

Actual real power will go up, however dyno numbers should stay the same.

Andy said with the 3.33 pulley he could 420.

I have a 3.33 8 rib pulley sitting on a shelf in my garage...

he's just a cool guy (at least has been when i've met him)

I'll second that.

8 rib will not fit this install. The pulley as it sits now is about an 1/8" away from the altinator housing. Has to be a 6 rib with no outside flanges.

Nice I want to run it now!

You'll probably be around 420hp when the cool air comes this winter. My old stang use to get stupid quick when it was cold out, very noticeable.

Yep my lightning would pick up a couple lbs of boost when cold. I had a summer tune and winter tune for it.

397rw is total

Not bad man, Pick up a power pipe for it and you will gain a few lbs of boost.

Car is leaps and bounds over stock. It pulls and pulls until you let out. Best mod I've ever done. Forced induction ftmfw

Nice numbers, but isn't the torque a touch on the low side? They dyno 280ish stock, so a 75tq gain? Seems kinda crappy since you probably saw 120RWP gain.

B-heads don't make torque like c-heads.

I'd say it's right on par.

They'll make torque with a 125 shot off idle

Enough to spin slicks with 30psi?

Must be the B head. Did some looking and 350tq seems par for the course on a b head with a vortech.
