Who is trying to use BFG Drag radials?

Violent84 · 06-09-2001, 11:17 AM

I think I may try to put my factory springs back under the rear just for the track. I'd really like a good front and rear setup from Hal but maybe next year. Oh and BTW, the guys at AFR say that dyno test on engines of very very similar mods are in the 400-450 hp range. It's all in the heads. You don't need a huge cam to make horsepower when you have good flow. Most aftermarket companies lie Holley and Edelbrock have packages making about 320-350 hp. Have you checked those flow numbers? In comparison to stock they are great but when trying to compare to AFR they suck. AFR has great flow but they don't sacrafice VE, that's why the work so well even with a mild level 5 cam like mine.

later,
Violent
