Engine Work or Super Charger Options

Hogster,

I have the same engine that you do, but since my car is track use only I am going with AFR 205's with as big a cam that will work. But currently it has Victor Junior steel heads with 2.02 intake and 1.60 exhaust valves and a E303 cam. It makes 340hp at the wheels with a very flat torque curve. You will be very happy with it. I will warn you about the Mass Flo. It does need to be tuned on a dyno after the car in up and running. Chis at Mass Flo does put a chip in the computer and "tunes" for you engine size but I have gain 20 hp over the initial tune with my tune at the controls. Its was also very rich initially...But once its dialed in its is wonderful. Two years after I had the car tune I went back to check on the A/F ratio and it was within 2 hp of before...Mac

Boy do I hear that. Get that tune checked out and dialed in. Don't do what I did and just run the car. It ran a little funny...pinging and such and I was racing a miata when my engine blew. Turned out it was to lean...melted a piston and valve which dropped...then it blew two rods right outta the block Bout pissed my pants when it happended...spun the car but kept it on the road. You live and learn, I sure won't do that again.
