Default Re: poor dyno numbers from 408 :(

I may have found another problem. The car looks to still have 2.25 exhaust on it. I dont see how the thing could be breathing thru that with its cubes.

I would imagine a 408 would be pretty choked breathing through 2 1/4. Its time for 3 inch.

Im not thinking that edelbrock performer head is gonna flow enough for 408 ci 6500 rpm pulls. Exhaust needs upgrading as well.
