Dyno'ed My 360..it's a pig..what next?

These might get some work done before I go to Eddy's...only because I know someone local who can do them without me shipping them out. He an old schooler who's been building engines as long as I've been alive.


If you can get your current setup running efficient BEFORE you go with bigger valves and ports I think you will be happier. Once you change the heads you'll be chasing the tune up again. I'm not sure what valves and port work will cost you but if I had to guess you'll be looking at $700-$1000 roughly when your heads are done, close to the same for edelbrock heads. Then roughly $500 for a new carb. Then you'll figure out that your new setup doesn't like the cam and now you're looking at more time and money, after spending $1200-$1500. Take it from someone that doesn't have a lot of time and money, drive it and have fun. I'm willing to bet that if you found 10-20hp in your tune up you'd be thrilled and you wouldn't worry about the other stuff. Just trying to save you some time, money and heartache. Good luck.

P.S. If HP #'s and time slips do mean something to you then scrap my advice above and by all means spend the money.
