There yours if you want them...

Would the Victor Jr work OK on a basic truck 350 (72 vintage 185hp 4v motor) with mid 80's FI smog heads with an Edelbrock 1407 carb and economy headers hooked up to a granny-low 4sp in a C-20?

I was thinking of chucking some $$ at an air gap RPM .. but might be interested in that manifold if it will work on my setup.

On a basically stock motor I wouldnt, If your not planning any big engine improvements (cam,Heads etc I wouldnt even waste the time going the RPM airgap manifold) The Victor is more mid to more upper RPM performance. The other Performer RPM manifold would work with an adapter, I might even have one I'll toss in if your interested.

2. Holley StealthRam Fuel Injection setup
Has 30lb injectors and the Comander950 computer
System is complete except fuel filter. $1300

Didi you get this entire setup as a single system, if so could you look up the Holley part number and post or PM it. Does it have the wide band o2?

Planning a cam.. though I haven't picked the right grind yet. Heads are a thought, but I don't know about them right now cause I have braces for the girly comming up (unless you have a nice set of heads for a good deal too.. lol) I was thinking the Vic might be a bit much. I have a low-rise performer with a q-jet on the engine now. I have an Edelbrock 1407 manual choke carb sitting in my parts pile ... I plan on getting a set of headers in this process.

I could be interested in that second manifold (didn't see it on the first pass..) .. I'm open to suggestions also.. if going to a larger plenum manifold and the performer carb doesn't really buy me anything I may want to go a different rout ... just trying to get a nasty sounding rig that will snap your head back .. not neccesarily trying to get low ETs (especialy with a two ton sled of a C-20 .. lol)

If you want Nasty, The Victor Jr is a place to start, Cam recomendations, probally something with about a 230@.050, 550 plus lift, Even the Roller I have mentioned above 276/282 224/230@.050 & 503/510 lift, pricier but bigger payoffs, Heads, I just sold 2 sets, Set of Edle RPM's and a set of ProTopLine 220's. They went cheap right along with the 413sbc. The 350 is a good motor but to really take advantage of some serious HP out of it you need to spend some bucks, another alternative is a 383 stroker kit, heads for performance, some Darts, AFR's the list can go on. I have always had much better luck with single plane intake manifolds, but at the same token you generally loose some bottum end, one way to eleviate this is by stroking or running some good gears, I've run the victor on 283's, 350's, 413's and never really missed the lowend, I probally would have noticed it more so if I was gonna tow or haul heavy loads but these where street rods not hay haulers or boat pullers.

Take me out of the runnin for the Vic Jr. the Wallet just doesn't seem to co-operate with me these days.

[special-K]

Hey Botie,you`re right.And,that`s what I`ll do.My son broke his leg(pretty bad)a couple weeks ago snoboarding.So,we won`t be doing a trip to N/E to ski.I`ll just do a redeye solo-style.I`ll give you a down payment to light a fire under my azz.If you still have the Muncie when I come,and I have the cash,I`d like to haul that back.PM me what you`d like down on the hood.

[FormerMember]

Can you shoot me a # I can call?

I am probably local and I am interested in the front suspension and EFI conversion.

[Bowtie67]

special-K, grendel You have email

[kevncar]

Any more info on the 5-lug conversion axles. Do they have the wheel studs? What would shipping to 95350 be?

thanks

[DTerry]

Were you able to find a part number on the Stealth Ram? I need to figure out application info on it. Maybe you could shoot me a phone number too?

This would be Summits part number - HLY-91504201
Minus the powder coating, Minus the Aif FIlter and throttle cable bracket assembly and I will shoot you a PM with my number

Kind of missed the part about your son, I hope all is going well for him, they do spring back pretty quick, I know what a broken leg feels like, and they only good part of broken legs are the girls that feel sorry for ya.

[special-K]

Thanks,he`s fine.Laid-up with a full leg cast for 6 weeks and a tutor coming to the house.Then 4 weeks in a walking cast.He`s talkin`to his girlfriend all the time on the phone,now.Maybe he`ll want to take the ride up,but kinda doubt it.He`s hating the crutches and it`s hard to sit cuz it needs to be elevated.

How old is the 4 core rad. and how much, if you got rid of the electric fan.Is it for a auto. or manual.zip is 82210

[tom71]

hello do you still have either of the fuel injection set ups? how many sensors did you have to install? i.e- o2- throttle position -coolant temp -maf or mas ? thanks

For Fuel injection there arent really that many sensors, TPS(already mounted), temp switch(already installed in intakes), Map/MAF Sensor (already installed), I think that is it with the exception of having to put an O2 Sensor bung in your exhaust for the O2 Sensor. And yes currently I do still have both and are available, there has been several emails going back and forth to different people wanting information but no commitments on either setup as of yet.

Between both setups the Stealthram setup although it looks the coolest the MPFI actually is a much better setup because of all the runners and the inlet for air is all equel to all cylinders, although not really any issue is that the Stealth setup will have a tendency to run a little richer on the rear cylinders because of the other cylinders are stealing most of the air before it can get to the rear cylinders. The Stealthram setup is a bit like a tunnel ram, the base is actually from a tunnel ram it runs better in the mid to upper RPM ranges but becuase of it being a fuel injection setup the lowend isnt truelly all that affected.

Bowtie, if it's not already spoken for you can consider the Holley Multiport Fuel Injection system sold. I'll PM you my address so you can give me a quote on shipping.

Thanks,
Ron

[kaycee]

PM me and I'll send you a m.o. MON.
