Hi Everyone!!
Well i finally upgraded to electronic ignition!! YAY!!
:
I was wondering and have been searching through past posts but cannot find what i am looking for.... i have a stock 351W 2V with headers and dual exhausts. I want to upgrade to Edelbrock performer manifold and Edelbrock 600cfm (elec choke) carb. So my engine is now lighter, 4V and with a 600cfm carb blowing through the headers and pipes. What sort of power gains can i expect to see? HP wise?? Guestimate?? I want to keep it a street machine with low end grunt, i don't drive at extreme speed (well maybe once to see what she can do!!
) and just want a streetable Cougar that has the acceleration of a true Cat!!
: Are these mods enough to satisfy my need, or maybe the RPM intake?? but i want zero rpm up!! Or another brand?? What about the carb 650, 700?? Please your thoughts and opinions are needed and appreciated.... i just want to put my money on something that i am going to be satisfied with!! To satisfy my whim is the above all i need or do i need a performance cam as well??
Many Thanks for all your help past and present
