So you’re saying 51 cubic inches explains away 300+ WHP difference?!?  Besides, your blower is ported by Kong the same as his. They’re air pumps, that’s it, and airflow directly correlates with torque (which is exactly how our torque-based ECM engines are tuned by GM, as you know). If the Eddie moves similar air, it’ll make similar power. But it’s not. We’re talking a 30 lb/hr difference vs the Maggie…that’s huge. |
Come on man, the additional cid is probably 150hp and I could explain the balance if Jason would give us the details of his engine, fuel, tune, custom built trans, etc.which is highly unlikely. You're comparing a race car to a DD, which is totally unreasonable. If I wanted a top 5 LT4, I would own one, but I don't. I've done the "fastest race car" thing and it's a very very expensive hobby that I can no longer afford.
