Collector Gaskets

My engine employs an original 289 block .030" over. with a 302 crank (turned .010/.010). TRW forged flat top pistons with stock rods (Pioneer aftermarket rod bolts). I use a Canton windage tray and crank scraper. I think that's about it for the short block.

TrickFlow TW heads are pocket ported and gasket matched, making about 9.5/1 CR. A CC 268 HE cam hydraulic flat tappet cam is used ( 218/218 @ .050) and uses 1.7 TrickFlow rockers making .485 valve lift.

A 625 CFM Road Demon carb on a ported Edelbrock Performer intake is used to emphasize low end torque.

Tri-Y Y headers (a la Shelby) are used with 2.5" custom exhaust with 3 chaamber Flowmasters.

I did build a home made cold air induction system that does seem to help a little.

My C-4 has a B&M shift kit and a TCI 2500 RPM stall converter. An 8" Currie 3.25 Traction-Lock rear puts the power down to the track with BFG street radials (235/15's).

If I forgot anything, just ask.

And, March under drive pulleys.
