Specs are similar to Crane f246 and Ford Motorsport A342, but with more lift to feed the extra cubes.
Carb: QuickFuel Q850 (Jets - 72 primary, 78 secondary) 4.5 Power Valve. This carb originally had 76/86 jets, running with the 3” X Pipe exhaust (now twin 2.5”). The unburnt fuel fumes were unbearable.

Dyno ResultsFor the dyno, we used Pacemaker 4 into 1 extractors, 2” Primary into 3.5” collectors
The first carb used was a Holley 830 double pumper - Ignition was set with 21 initial to 30 degrees timing.
The result was 512HP @ 6000RPM & 471 ft/lb@4700RPM
Air Fuel ratio was 14.02:1 (A little high for the tuner’s liking, so we swapped carb)
The next carb was a Holley 950 HP Double Pumper (Jets - 79 primary/86 Secondary)- with 21 initial to 30 degrees total timing.
After a warm up, the result was 535HP @ 6000RPM & Torque spiked to 529 ft/lb@4700RPM, then went down, then came up again - this was an inaccurate reading (See pic)
Air Fuel Ratio was 11.5:1
We re-set the rev limiter to 6500 - Timing stayed the same (21 initial to 30 degrees total)
The result of this change was 549.6HP @ 6500RPM & Torque was 505.4 ft/lb@5300RPM
Air Fuel Ratio was around 11.5:1
We re-set the rev limiter to 6800 - Timing stayed the same (21 initial to 30 degrees total)
The result was 557.7HP @ 6800RPM & Torque was 508.6 ft/lb@5400RPM
Air Fuel Ratio was around 11.5:1
On a cool night, it ran a best time of 12.34@116.5mph. This is with 3.25 diff gears and 205/70 14 tyres.
It was my first time drag racing, so i need to practice how to get it off the line…
