I had a '77 LeSabre with a 1970 GS 350 engine(315 hp),and I used a TA Stage 1 aluminum intake. It worked very good and had lots of power.
i am selling a complete change from 2-4bbl take a look in the for sale section make me an offer on it comes with what i think is everything needed except the carb rebuild kit and gaskets Greg
I don't want to argue with you but take a look at my dyno results under small blck forum. TA vs stock intake I have a fairly modified engine and it only had a 3hp increase at peak . The proof is in the dyno tests. Tim
Did you go from a 2bl to a 4bl?? If so that is not a fair comparison, a stock 4bl intake would make a nice improvement. Tim
Dyno a dyno is not a correct way of tuning your motor mainly because it uses a controlled enviroment. get it to the track or the street. that is the best dyno. :3gears: jerry
So are you saying that my time and money spent on the dyno adjusting the timing , exchanging intake manifolds and trying different spacers to find my engines sweet spot was a waste of time??? Interesting idea you have, I am sure that all engine builders don't share your same ideas. Let's ask Jim Burek if he could have built his monster 350 engine by swapping parts at the drag strip? Tim
dyno apparently your idea of dyno tuning and mine are different. mine is that, tuning your carb to get the most horse power in a controlled enviroment which is probably about 70-80 degrees with the same air, is going to be different when the temp and air are completely different when you are at the track. try force feeding the air into the carb on the dyno and see how much differnce there is. jerry o No:
