My MRL 408 is finally running.

[rrvolare]

Wait a minute... is that a SUPERVICTOR ???? fits underhood ?... were you able to install a air cleaner ?

 

[vernfields jr]

Yes super victor. No can't install under stock hood. I'm hoping I can run my ram air air cleaner under a 5in cowl hood. I know I don't like them either but I believe it will be the only hood I can use.

 

[justinp61]

It sounds good.

Does AAR Fiberglass make a 6 pack hoot to fit it?

 

[vernfields jr]

Not that I can find and by my calculations I need a minimum of a 5in scoop. I have seen some 6 pal scoops that are 6in on cars but I can't find them anywhere.

 

[Sean Mooney]

Nice set up. I'm looking for a 340/360 or SBM Stroker making 550+hp.

 

[vernfields jr]

I will sell you this one. Truth be told I was looking for more HP/TQ

That's good numbers for a edelbrock headed street motor, what were you expecting?

 

[vernfields jr]

I have 13,500 in receipts. Everything is brand new but the block. Make a reasonable offer.

I don't want to buy it, I was wondering what your HP expectations were

 

[vernfields jr]

I was expecting 600+

Your first post sounded like you were excited, now your wanting to unload the motor???

 

[vernfields jr]

I am very excited. I'm not trying to sell it but if someone came up with the money I would just to build one with more horsepower. I will not advertise it

 

[vernfields jr]

that 6 pak scoop is only 4in I need at least 5in would rather have 6in

I run one of their 6 pack hoods on my Dart with an Indy intake + a 1" spacer with a drop base air cleaner.

Were you looking for a particular ET, or did you just want the dyno sheet to say 600hp?

 

[vernfields jr]

I would like to be in the mid 10's but ok with 11's. I still need to get a roll bar put in it.

Unless you car is a tank, you have enough power to go high tens. And that would be at 3700 pounds.

 

[vernfields jr]

I'm guessing with me it's 3200#

 

[yellow rose]

I'm guessing with me it's 3200#

If you are right you have enough HP to run mid tens.

 

[rumblefish360]

If everything else is set up to do that....

93 octane should be OK in that. 10.8-1 with aluminum heads and a big/small cam should be fine.

 

[70aarcuda]

Your ET / MPH computed from your vehicle weight of 3200 pounds and HP of 550 is 10.48 seconds and MPH of 129.00 MPH.

I know how you feel I have a lot of money in my stroker and will be in the same horsepower range as you

 

[Woodie]

After reading all the comments.. What has been done chassis wise? That 408 is going to buzz like a chainsaw.

 

[stixx]

I was expecting 600+

Sounds very similar to this story... Missed on this combo?
Not that more than 550HP isn't a stout number.
