Do you say that "Your wife looks like crap." or do you say "Well I have seen some better ones but she is still pretty fine" Everyone can open page 1 and see who started to talk inappropriate.
Yes I asked for help, does it mean I cant suddenly disagree with anyone? I have my own opinion and often arguments to support my opinion. Im not afraid to disagree with anyone of you in this forum. I dont either scare to be wrong. I dont see trought internet who had build 100 mopar engines and who are not and I dont really care. Tell your own opinion with good arguments ant then we can discuss about things. If im not agree with someone that is not attack, it is normal conversation.
If your wife came in wearing dog **** and you asked me how she looked. Then yup. I'd say she looks like crap. Honesty is the best policy.
You are more than entitled to your opinion. But let me ask you, again, how many people on here have said the exhaust needs to be changed? That the carb needs to be changed? You are asking us whats wrong. We are telling you whats wrong. Then you are telling us we are wrong. So why ask us? If you already know what it is, why bother asking? IF you are so sure what we tell you is wrong, and give you PROOF (for example, I posted a chart SHOWING that your exhaust can only support 289 horse) and you say you don't think that is a problem.
In fact you said:
How much hp I will gain from 750 carb and 2.5 exhaust? maybe 20. It still miss 80hp..
Where is your argument for 20 horse? I posted valid and mathematically proving info. Showing that a 2" exhaust is only capable for supporting 289 horse. That a 2.5" exhaust supports 463. And lets not forget that is the MAX that system supports. That assumes everything else runs well. I run a 3" exhaust on my 400+ horse 340 small block. Guess what I've never had a problem doing? Oh yeah, burnouts, whenever I want. With big fat 245's out back.
So once again:
The exhaust is killing AT LEAST 50HP. That's a VERY conservative number. VERY. Yes. Exhaust matters that much. Air goes in, must come out right? Why put on heads that can flow 500+ horsepower. But then an exhaust that can only flow 289 horsepower? Answer me that.
No, seriously. Tell me why you would put on head's that can flow 500+ horse. With an exhaust that can only flow 289 horse. I want to hear your "argument" or "opinion" for this.
There is a lot of gold in that statement!
If it has headers on it, remove the exhaust at the collector and see how it responds. The exhaust is KILLING the engine and NOTHING you do with the distributor will fix that. As long as you continue on the current path, accept the rotten performance you've observed.
That engine with a good tune, decent carb and exhaust will make 420hp EASY!!!
Don't bother. A dozen people have told him the exhaust and carb need to be changed. And he refuses to believe it.
