I have about 600 bucks left to spend on my 360 Magnum and I want to get the most bang for my buck(my wife has cut me off and won't give me a penny more than that LOL) any suggestions?
***1992 360 Magnum completely stock short block and heads with the exception of Hughes springs and retainers
***Cam is 512 lift intake and exhaust, 278 duration exhaust 268 intake, 110 centerline
***Holley vac sec 750 with proform carb body and secondary metering block
***Factory 2 1/8 1992 Dakota exhaust manifolds mated to Summit 2 1/2
complete exhaust system with turbo mufflers
***Mopar MP distributor with an MSD 6AL
*** Professional Products Crosswind knock off Air Gap
***TCI 3500 loose converter with a large cooler
***904 torqueflite with 2.74 low first gear with a cheetah reverse manual valve body
***B and M Megashifter
***3.91 Sure Grip 742 case
***Aluminum 3 core radiator
I have gnashed my teeth and pulled my hair out over the decision to run factory exhaust manifolds. After much research I discovered that these manifolds(Dodge Dakota 1992 only) 53006618 and 53006619 flow as well or better than 340 manifolds. I want to avoid all the hassles associated with headers and am prepared to lose the 20 or so horsepower from not running headers.
I am thinking that for 600 bucks I can get a progressive nitrous timing controller that plugs directly into the MSD to retard the timing for the nitrous--this controller plus a cheap nitrous setup would set me back right around 600 bucks . What do you guys think??
