Differance in ET after cam and intake?

93CobraR · 05-03-2001, 08:59 PM

I finally got me new Edelbrock Performer intake and Crane Compucam 2031 cam. I will be putting them in this week and running the car next friday hopefully. What do you guys think I will pick up in the 1/4? My best now is in the sig. How about MPH? I know that the stock intake is really holding back my GT-40 heads now. Also how much should I bump my fuel pressure up? if any? Thanks

You should definately get the car to a mid-12 with the Edelbrock and cam installation.

I've seen MANY cars with aftermarket intake,GT-40 heads,aftermarket cam,exhaust mods,gears,...run in the 12 second range with no problem.

Don't raise your fuel pressure.Make some runs at the track to determine where you should set fuel pressure.Keep records of where it's set at and go accordingly.When the car starts to slow down in MPH,then go back to the previous pressure setting.
