Yet another "How much HP am I looking at" thread

Alright SaleenGTS and Killercanary.

What is so different about 2FastLX's setup and yours?

Well here's what I'm seeing. 2Fast has a more aggressive cam, better exhaust, more compression, ported heads (even stockers can make good power when ported), and a solid intake. It's true the F-303 is big for stock heads, it's made to have more flow, but if the heads are ported well, it should work okay.

Plus his car is lighter. 12's are totally possible.

If you don't see any power in his combo, I guess you guys can't make it out of the mid low 13's so your timeslip is wrong, SaleenGTS.

I have a difficult time believing a Fcam, with ported GT-40 heads, a GT-40 intake and the rest of the usuals would show less than 300hp at the flywheel. That's totally ****** up. If that were the case, you'd never see a N/A 302 in the low 12's.

A GT-40 aluminum set, with a GT-40 intake, and an E cam with the usuals should be damn close to 340hp at the flywheel.
