Rick,

I am planning a car out.

A good deal on a FE engine came along. It is rated at 482hp at 5400 and 542 ft/lb at about 4400. I discussed a cam change with Brent at B2 to push the HP up about 40 hp and 800 rpms. So about 520 hp at 6200 rpm with minimal torque change.

It is a lot easier to change the cam now instead of waiting until the engine is in the car.

The trans will be a TKO 600 with 2.87 first and at 3.54 diff. The same set up in my last big block Cobra that I liked.

John
