Carfarmer....

Yeah, I've been engineering the combo to try to take away as much low end torque (Bigger carb, single plane insead of an RPM Air gap and 112 lobe centers) as I can. I want to try to keep the "shiney side up" if at all possible

This mini stroker (essentially a 318 bore 360-ish stroke) should be a good combination for bracket racing in a short light combo, to keep from flipping I'm starting out with 4.56 gears 9thanks B1Frank!) and a deep gear 998 auto with a 3200-ish stall but with a much smaller 26" x 9.5" Hoosier QTP instead of the 29 x 11.5" I was running. I'm doing 1/8th mile so I'll have to go to the taller tire (or less gear) to run the 1/4 once I get her all sorted out.


Wise, with that bob weight and stroke that pup is just cryin for a set of main studs with pro-gram caps a 250ish @ .050 solid roller and a little set of wheelie bars and maybe a little shave on the heads

Yeah, thought about that. To be honest I just want something that'll go rounds and have fun with whatever ET it runs.....With bracket racing I like to leave first and that would really be the advantage of such a small car that'll be a very small target to chase to the stripe in the 1/8th mile....I'll probably see how fast it'll go and then back it off a couple tenths with a Vac secondary and try to make it as consistent as a swiss watch.

For sure I got an easy 600hp crank and rods in a 450-ish motor, that's ok though cuase it's an interesting combo...if I want to turn up the wick I'll find a real 340 block and just buy slugs and maybe caps then.

Mocked up the oil pump and pan....naturally the big fat rods required knocking down the pump pick up boss with the ol' handy mini side grinder. I went low buck using a rear sump truck pan, i thought about building a scraper for it but the main problem of starvation under a high G launch is solved with the truck pan.....nice to not have to worry about a big ol honkin K frame for a change!!!

I got to and I'd offer this suggestion to either Edelbrock or Indy.....

Come up with an 'EZ' Style approach and make a smallblock head with a W2/5 (offset rocker) style intake with a standard header flange exhaust....something that will flow 280 @.500 right out of the box without needing an exotic header to work in any A/B/E body. Make a 2.02 that will fit in any 318 based block and maybe a high-flow 2.08 or larger valve Super Victor/Big Easy for the bigger bores w/custom pistons; both should have a modern compact heart shaped combustion chamber of maybe 60cc's that would work with a zero deck flat top.

The idea of an off the shelf bona-fide High quality and affordable 500hp smallblock head could be developed/made pretty easily with the right combination of existing molds.

Ford and Chevy have had this option for years and years, done right I can't see why this head would cost more than 100.00 or so more than a standard RPM style head.

Also why can't anybody make a high quality but cheap mass-produced stamped offset rocker for guys who want to run the option of a W2 style intake with a mild hydraulic cam? This would take advantage of the much higher lift XE style street grinds without having to shell out mega bucks for an entire roller rocker valvetrain.

I agree about your head sugestion, the eddy could at least for sure use a better shaped chamber, they could at least rob the one from there magnum head.

The one thing about the stamped W2 rocker is the guys who run W2 style heads typically run pretty big cams that need really stiff springs and those tend to punch through stamped steel rockers. The stamping process makes a weak area right in the PR cup, to make them strong enough they would need to be very thick and then they would be very heavy and require even stiffer springs and the W2 style valve train is not very stable as is. However, I think it should be easy enough to make a decent set of say $300 aluminum rockers with a bushing where the shaft rides there would be a big market for those .

Dave,

I think what I was getting to is with this head you could run a better flowing W2 style (no pushrod pinch) intake port by simultaneously developing a simple W2 style HD stamped offest rocker for the hot-street/hydraulic flat tappet crowd. Perfect for 340-360's to take advantage of the better flow without neccesarily having to go with a roller rocker valvetrain/new pushrod set-up. The idea is to get the best combination of the better intake runner/chamber/aluminum technology/design on the street for the "bolt on and go" masses which would also be a step-up from the Eddies for much of the stroker and street/strip crowd.

If they built a stamped steel offset rocker, the design would have to take in account the massive side load between the intake and exhaust rockers, the current design would ware right thru

Duration is more of a factor in VtoP clearance than lift. I have a roller that is 230* at .050 and .605 lift, KB107's .006 out of the hole, with over .120 clearance on both sides.

I think the kb pistons have .650 valve notches, pv clearance is not an issue unless you run lots of advance with a big fast cam, but ya need to check it anyway

Don't forget head gasket thickness, VJ depth, head millling, rod ratio, LSA, rate of cam lift... all those thing and more come into play

I just read an article in Engine Masters magazine that stated Indy sells an eddy head that has the pushrod hole relocated and uses the W2 offset intake rocker.

============================
* 'Mandatory' 9 year old topic update! *
============================


Major topic-revival from the almost forgotten basement.

9 years since this topic started.
Plenty of new stuff has come out since then so it should be easier to get to '500hp' nowadays.

To kick it off again;
I'm considering to wake up my current stock stroke and dailydriven 360ci engine in a '73 Dart a bit more.

This engine has a 11.3:1cr, polished '302' heads with 60/61cc chambers.
KB-pistons, balanced assembly. AirGap intake.
(Hydr.) CompCams XE256H, used with solid lifters and Crane 1.5 rockers.
208-210 cranking compression. Running on Propane fuel.
Doug's full length headers into a dual 2.5" exhaust system with X-pipe and Borla mufflers.

Would like to keep the shortblock/crank ass. as is (zero-deck), and considering going to a solid roller and some SideWinder heads perhaps.

Won't mind a little lopey idle, and I know this is contradictory, but fuel economy is a consideration so low/mid range torque/efficiency is King.
Like to keep it N/A.

What are today's options of getting at (around) '500hp' while keeping the engine docile enough for daily use and not be a handful to drive?

500 HP will put a 3200 lb. car less than 10.50 @ almost 127 MPH.

3000 lbs.......about 10.20 @ over 129 MPH.

2800 lbs.......9.90s @ over 132 MPH
.

___________

3200 x 500fwhp = 10.81@124
3000 = 10.58@127
2800 = 10.34@130

Well I just called Trickflow and the planned release day for their small block mopar head is in September. I personally am not interested in this head but while talking to their tech department I asked if they planned on releasing another BETTER head in the future like they did with the big block head. They are pretty tite lipped but he said nothing at this time. He did go on to say they were both happy and surprised by the mopar markets sales numbers.

I’m sure a 10.5:1 360 with the TF heads and a smallish roller would break 500hp.

The question would be, how small could the cam be and still get you to the 500hp mark.

I'm not big on throwing horsepower numbers out there but my Sons stock crank 360 has gone a nice string of 6.54's in a 3200 pound car with a 727 and 4.10 gears. Edelbrock heads and a 610 lift roller cam. That should be a hair over 500 I would think.
