Default Your Set up

Borrowed (verbatum) from a post by Andrew Borodin at PT.com. Good one.

1. What brand of car is your current project?

2. What engine is in your current project?

3. What is your horse power goal?

4. What style of induction is planned for your current project?

a. Naturally aspirated carburetor
b. Naturally aspirated EFI
c. Forced induction carburetor
d. Forced induction EFI

5. Please list the details of your induction system. Brand of intake manifold, carburetor, EFI ECU, blower, turbo, etc…

6. Why did you choose this style of induction system?

7. If you are using EFI, what are the deciding factors for choosing your particular system?

1. 1969 Camaro

2. 383 LT1

3. 900-1000 HP

4. D Forced induction EFI

5. Hogan sheetmetal manifold, twin 75mm Accufab throttle bodies, Big Stuff III EFI with wideband, boost controller, and trans controller built in. (2) Precision PT-52 turbos

6. Bought the manifold because I found it new at 1/2 price from a guy switching motor plans. Turbos were selected because of the power and smoothness. Big Stuff 3 because it's John Meaneys newest system ( meaning awesome resolution and tuneability) and can incorporate the paddle shifter controller and boost controller in the same box eliminating extra items.

7. see above

1968 CAMARO

383, Dart Heads, internally balanced, headers, flowmaster exhaust

450+

edelbrock victor (tall runner) single plane, 750 edelbrock carb

I did start out with a edelbrock rpm but it really didn't fit the heads right. I went with a victor single plane after about a year. I thought I would loose bottom end but Scott convinced me I shouldn't. No change in the bottom end and probably better in the top.

Simplicity, and always had good luck with Edelbrock carbs
