Scott-- Sorry but I can't recall the cfm capability of the throttlebody, but I believe it to be 1000+ cfm (it will flow more air than required, I'm told). I'm going to have to quiz my builder about all this (he just LOVES it when I show up with lots of internet questions...).
Yeah, 587 to 604 bhp is a difference of about 3%, but there's something about being able to say you have "over 600 bhp" out of a smallblock that sounds so cool. How much of that power I'll ever be able to use is open for debate. The builder has told me the motor is strong enough to get 800 bhp with NOS (for when I get bored with 587!).
Again, thanks so much for your input on this forum. I've learned a lot from your posts.
Arubacobra-- I'm jealous!! I wanted to go with Yates heads, but had to put a limit on the budget at some point. I also wanted to go with the 8-stack Weber-like EFI, but decided it was good to be able to afford to eat.... Seriously, I went 40% over budget on my dream, but am hopeful it will be well worth it. Have fun with your new toy, Aruba!
