Mileage, yes, acceleration? No. You still need to make the power to move the weight. While there is an improvement, the amount is not seen in mileage. True. But sometimes I can effectively play devil advocate. Allow me to do so here, just for fun. Todays cars get what rod mileage? Plymouth...

An AFR like it’s N/A except under boost where you need more. FI is excellent here.

I agree with both of you. One of the things about adding boost is lightening up the parasitic load. The additional fuel has to be minimal along with the amount of boost to increase mileage. 1-2-3 psi and most times mileage goes up. 8-9-10 psi, ehhhhhhhhhhh Not so much! LOL!

I agree. Having the rep at work, I was often asked questions. I have no problem answering them and talking about it. I thought it was great. People seeking knowledge. But like you said, sometimes, the concept goes right over their head. It’s OK. I get it. For a lot of these guys, when they ask...

Now try and convince someone not really into cars about that increase in mileage. I’ve never had success.

Done dug up a 5 year old thread! I do hope there’s a positive reply. He was here recently. Nice! :thumbsup:

NOT a genius! Smarty pants maybe….. Though I will say my dyno guessing attempts here have been, well, not so good. A desk top dyno that sent a bad program, if your honest and accurate in inputting the specs needed.

Cam specs please!

I say do it again! He did say the tune up was off and he didn’t pay attention so the fault is his and admitted to it. So that’s cool. Honesty! Richard Holdner has boosted stuff like crazy! It all lived. It’s all in the tune.

I’m sooooooooo going to try and that! ******* AWESOME!!!

:steering: Whooooooooooooaaaaaaaa!!!!! Yes haw!

Who makes that? Looks reallly nice!

That’s what they say about me and my head…. Not so much my cars head….

1008’s at how many PSI?

@cudavert That’s true. The spark has trouble making the jump under pressure. Decrease the plug gap or increase the energy. Sometimes both. @Toluene56 Nice run, keep it up.

@cudavert That crank case venting idea was a good one. In wasn’t thinking about that.

What are you doing now for the China wall seal? How much of a gap is there between the intake and block?

Excellent! Thanks

Crap, ow that you mention that PSI, I’m running a carb. I’ll check the link…

Is it a retro fit kit? Pictures? Link? Thanks!

That’s cookin! Great job!

Super charger/Turbo = 6 or one half dozen The engine is seeing pressure and exhaust it. Perhaps the amount of pressure an engine see’s could vary that exhaust a bit? IDK myself. At the described HP level, I don’t think a 3-1/2 exhaust pipe would hurt. But…….. I’d dyno it and find out how much...

LMAO! Naaaa, your good. It was the loose nut behind this phone.

My bad! Lost connection. I see it now!

Can’t see nothin.

Very nice! Is there room for a mechanical fan? What did you do for a fuel system? Is the fuel system new? By who & Cost?

Im not sure, but I do know a few hookers that would fit the bill! Seriously, the drag racers in the ‘50’s (?) turbo charged there super charged.

Pinging?!?! Less timing. Yea… it’s a HP looser, better than an engine lost! It’s doable.

That’s the beauty of forced induction. You don’t have to use a big cam. Go for it.

“Boost Weather” LMAO, very cool! 55* here last night. (LI-NY)
