I have a 69 convertible with the original 350.
My engine is setup as follows:
3932388 Block
3932441 Heads 1.94/2.02 76.26 cc
3905393 Intake
7029202 QJet
1111955 Distributor with Pertronix conversion
Dynomax Headers
Flat top pistons...maybe 9:1
XE262 cam
Trans
I just swapped the original TH350 for a 2004R.
Rear
12 bolt posi with 3.73 gears.
TA Radial 245/15/60 on the back
I'm thinking that my engine makes about 300HP. I haven't taken it to the track, but I was thinking that it should be low 15's? Does that sound close?
If I wanted more power what would be a good intake? How much HP would I be able to pickup with a better intake? What about heads? What is a good set of heads to put on? If I changed both heads and intake how much more power could I make and would I be able to get into the 13's with those changes?
I'm just wondering how much I could get out of my car without adversly effecting the streetability of it.
