School me on supercharging a 360
I tried to upload this chassis dyno sheet for the car, but it didn't make it.
Here's attempt number two....
Not very impressive, for sure, but shows what can be done with a nearly stock engine (stock short block, except for the cam) and almost completely stock heads.
The blower is a Vortech S-Trim, V-1, the compression is stock (OEM) at 9:1 (I checked it), and the redline is 6,000 rpm. I have pulleys on it that give 10 pounds of boost from about 2,500 rpm to the 6-grand redline. I am deathly afraid to run more, due to the cast (stock) pistons....
Headers are TTI 1-58"/1-34" stepped headers, with a 2.5" H-Pipe exhaust system; DynoMax Super Turbo mufflers, and 2.5" tailpipes.
3.55:1 8.75" rear end, 904 T-Flite; 3,340 pounds with no driver aboard.
The 1,000-foot times equate to approximately 11.77 @ 116 mph for the quarter-mile.
Since that run, I have added slicks that are 1" wider (9"), and a 4.10 final drive ratio. The 60-foot times should come down about .3-sec (I HOPE; it was spinning all the way through 1st gear the last time out), so the quarter-mile times should drop into the 11.40s or '50s, I would think. MPH probably won't increase.
I have no idea what its reported 445 rear wheel HP would be at the flywheel.
Too danged hot to race, here, right now...
