wow, I was worried 26 might be a little on the high side, and you're running 36'ers which are middle of the road? what kind of setup do you have? And I talked to the guy about burning me a chip and he said the cam I had picked out was just too big, and recommended I went down to a 268H because my computer is speed density, not MAF but that doesn't bother me, the 268H will do everything I need

 

Yes with a TPI set up you can not go crazy with a cam, the 480 lift may be pushing it. The Prom is going to make or break this swap so get a good tune with one. You will need to check how much vacuum you will have for the brakes or a vacuum booster is the next step. Good choice with the 26# FI's. Just remenber bigger is not always the best choice. Good luck

 

im running a 383 stroker, however mine is the older years with a maf. the cam isnt big, .489 lift and im not sure on the duration, but its fairly mild since it is a street/strip/highway car. the specs in my sig were with a 750 carb, dual plane intake, and long tube headers. im thinking it will be more around 420/500 with the tpi setup

 

So what is it, 383 with TPI or Carb ????? And whats up with the MAF???

 

its TPI. maf is more accurate form of reading the amount of air going into the engine. map is basicly a vacuum sensor. bigger cams have lower vacuum, so the ecm will think its under load and will dump large amounts of fuel to it when it doesnt need it.

 

I know what the Maf is. But it seems that you are using the TPI & CARB systems in the same sentence when describing that 383.

 

yea, the dyno numbers i was speaking of were done with a 750 carb. sorry if i confused anyone
