Suggestions

[Bob Wooten]

I will try to keep this short.  sounds like your setup is similar to mine,
so.....   I was very nieve (sp) when i started this project, & there are a
number of things that i would do over & certainly different.  You could say
that i ended up going with a stroker motor, w/a 91 ECM (7730, $8D), &
probably a little too much cam for the street, & the super ram.  for specs
goto my web page.  I have spent a double ton of $$$ on this & it still does
not run as well as it ought to (learning my the minute, & gratefully to the
guys).  it runs better than the Carb & single plane manifold that i had, &
is different (part of the fun).

were i to do this car over again, ported TPI maybe after market
runners/man/plenum & the 7730 again.
were i to race this car again, super ram, & Felpro system, batch fire &
WBO2.
the next toy, BBC, blower (undetermined, turbo/centrifugal), homemade
manifold, if i had money left over Felpro, no money, GM ECM.

if you want to know more specifics get me off line, (unless anyone else
would like to listen to me ramble).
