I meant with the full N/A set-up, long tube headers, intake and tune, pulleys, off road x or h pipe and maybe a water pump, over 400whp with those.. sorry i forgot to mention those key additions

Doug, I know a bunch of us NYorkers are trying to get you up here for the custom tune with your portable dyno. Anychance you will be able to do some other work like cams etc? I dont trust many people out there and I know you are one the few that know what theyre doing so if I got cams I would prefer to have you install over someone else.

Hey guys,

I do plan on making a trip once I have my dyno in but as for remote camshaft installation I just cant. The time it takes to do this job is great but even more so are the tools and the enviroment. I wouldn't remove the cam covers outside or in an uncontrolled shop for fear of flying debree getting inside my engine. My wife is about to kill me due to I wont allow her to open the garage door, actually unplugged the opener.

Sorry about that but I'm sure you can find a good shop in your area or you may have to drive a bit but good quality is well worth the added effort.

thanks, Doug.

Even with those mods plus P&P heads, the people in the "know" (which I am not) suggest that 400rwhp will be down right difficult to acheive with the 3V motors. They say that IF it can be done, it would most likely not be streetable. I'm not speaking from my own knowledge, just echoing what the some experienced engine builders have said.

I just dynoed mine today with no tuning,just the supplied tune and got 326rwhp on a Mustang Dyno and the a/f was getting richer at 6000rpm so more power could be made if we custom tuned it but i am going turbo in a few weeks so spending a couple of hours tweeking was worth it. His Dyno reads 16% lower than a Dynojet so that is about 378rwhp, about 5 less than BBRs Video the same tune done at SCT.

How about making a seperate post about your numbers as I'm trying to keep this one about my cams. You'll get alot more responce. Thanks!

Update, my springs are installed, that was the worst experience I've ever had with my own car. Like I said before, get ready to spend some money on this install as it will be well worth someone else doing it.

I'm now looking for the retaining clip for the tensioner as Ford's instructions dont say anything about a part number for it, I've ordered a new one to see if it comes with it.

Thanks, Doug.
