Wow that is a lot of info. This thread could go on for weeks...

hm... good info... so i guess thats why "bolt on" 5.0s are still slow

yes that is alot of info but it will help others to figure out what basic combo's they want to start out with even though most 5.0's that you find for sale now have just about every bolt on known to man kind

nice find! i particularly like how bigger throttlebody doesnt mean better. i find it weird that the 1.7s made good power on a stock engine, but less power on the modified one?! wtf?[&:]

Yeah, that definitely doesn't go along with other dyno tests I've seen...

like I say: screw all the small bolt ons...go for the throat from day one...h/c/i right away!! then build your list of supporting mods around the h/c/i
