hey guys what do yall think about this setup..

stock bottemend 302
TFS 170 heads MLS gaskets
1.6 rockers
X cam (we have been 6.13 with one)
TFS-R intake with 1 inch spacer ( the first style not the BOX)
TC 78mm turbo with around 12-15psi..
C4 with 3.27 gear
ultimate converter

just wondering if you guys think the R will be lazy down low, i think it will be a pretty good stock block setup..I will be leaving around 6-8psi of boost.

 

i don't think you'll have any problems. i had almost the exact same setup with a t trim and it was pretty good down load but came to life on boost. i think the same would be said with that turbo. may take a sec to get it spooled but will come on like crazy. not too sure about the x cam though. have you considered a f cam at all. little more turbo friendly. i'm no expert, but i think it would be a better match than the x

 

thanks for the reply Mike.. we had a 302 car with victor jrs, funnelweb, X cam,and csu carb, glide with a 4.10 76mm and that thing ripped..it went 6.13 in the 1/8th.. the only reason im running the X is it is already in the motor, and know it will kill the block haha!!! im sure the F would be a little better but ole well.. thanks for your thoughts on the intake..

 

look at the specs of the x303 next to the b303. Same cam, just more lift on the x. Both have a 112* LSA. Same [email protected]", same EC, EO, IC, IO etc.. I think its an alright cam for a turbo. People use b cams all day on turbos with success. Just think of it like a B cam with 1.8 rockers It'll turn your block into the grand canyon real easy

 

fair enough. i would rock it within a safe measure of boost. should run awesome. i really like the tfs-r intake personally. it flows really well, but has long enough runners to keep some low end tq

 

well im running a B cam now and it seems to run and make power. so im not going to worry about the (perfect) cam in a stock block..
Just wondering how the intake would act on the small motor, but i know how boost seems to change everything.. I will have the combo posted up top done soon and will post the results..If it goes faster than my 6.65 from my stock motor i will be happy.. I would like to see some 6.20's out of it, but ole well we will see..
