More power from my 360 Duster?
Any info would be appreciated!
I am looking to improve the performance of the 360 in my 74 Duster. I took it to the street legal races last night and did good, but now have the itch for more power. I want to be able to keep up with the Mustangs that I raced.
Here is my car specs:
-Block: 9.0:1 mopar 360 short block
-Stock 1974 360 Heads
-Edelbrock Air-Gap intake
-Carter 625CFM "performance series" carb.
-TTI headers into 2.5" exhaust with H-pipe and dynomax mufflers
-Comp Cams 20-212-2 Camshaft Duration at .050" lift: 218/218 (int/exh)
Valve lift .454"/.454" (int/exh)
-TCI-Sizzler 727 and 2500rpm stall.
-3.55 gears with clutch sure-grip in 8.75 rear.
-Mopar performance electronic orange box and distributor.
Is this an OK combo? The next race is in two weeks, and I would like to do some upgrades before then if at all possible. Is the carb I have too small for my combo? My car has a flex fan. Would adding a clutch one improve performance at the track? This car is mostly for street use, but I would like to go to the track once in a while. Any advice would be awesome!!
Thanks!
