The everyman's 360 LA Eddy headed engine dyno tested
So like the thread title says this is your truly average Mopar smallblock that seems to be fairly popular. People ask for a nice 400HP small block street engine w/aluminum heads all the time.
This is engine I am about to test is representative of what I see many people asking about here actually.
'73 360 block .030" SRP flat tops 1/16" ring pack -.010" deck
Stock rods ARP bolts
Stock cast crank .010/.020 balanced
Comp 270H camshaft / Melling lifters
Crane Gold 1.5 rockers
Stock style pass car oil pan w/Mopar HV oil pump
Edelbrock RPM heads w/2.02/1.60 valves, springs w/good Viton valve seals
Edelbrock 318/360 Performer (ancient)
Holley 750 dbl pump/ MSD billet dist/Taylor wires
This engine should be close to 10-1 comp and pumps 175 psi in all cylinders as it is.
Hoping for a really torquey engine and 400hp or more (aren't we always hoping?) More importantly I want good oil pressure trends, ZERO leaks, ZERO blowby and ZERO unexpected/bad noises. What say you? J.Rob
