AC Ventura liked post by Ron61 On thread : Autokraft Mk IV (Cobra) 302 to 427 downgrade 😜

AC Ventura liked post by Dwight On thread : Ford 427 FE 530hp fuel pump

You fuel pump is more than enough for 530 hp. The max you would need is 186 liters per hour and your 72 gallons per hour pump will deliver 272.55 per hour. You are good to go! dwight

AC Ventura liked post by cycleguy55 On thread : 427 FE Cobra Street: MSD 6AL or AL2 ?

The 2 stage is designed for launching in the straight line variety of racing with an automatic trans. What you could try is setting the lower limiter to 3500 or 4000 rpm and the higher limit to 6500...

AC Ventura liked post by CompClassics On thread : Avon CR6ZZ what tire pressures are you running

Spintech makes a 3 inch thick muffler with 2-1/2 inch inlet/outlets that works very well and sounds good. Hard to find a muffler less than 4 inches thick. ...

AC Ventura liked post by DanEC On thread : Flywheel bolt spacing, unequal
