Coming along nicely

Re: Whew!!!!!

Preston,

I'm not real good at
guessing e.t.'s without
knowing of a similar set-up.
I would think that more
information is needed to
give a close ball-park figure:

a) cam profile
b) gear ratio
c) which heads your using
d) your compression ratio
e) if you're running headers or
stock-type exhaust
f) tire size
g) estimated weight
h) tranny info

I'm sure there's an "i" through
"z" in there somewhere. :confused:

I DO know this, a small 4bbl
and taller (than stock) gears
would optimize your setup
regardless of the other specifics.

outta money here!)

Pictures!!!

Here are the before shots. Hopefully I will take the after shots today and tommorrow. THings are going to change! Country

 

After relieving the mav of its 200 I-6 burden.......

 

Just thought that I'd post this one because I think it's purty! Those underhood pics don't really show just how dirty it was under there. And they were taken after spending 8 dollars at the car wash. it's gonna be Different though.... Country

 

That looks to be a VERY straight body on your Mav, you've got a nice one. As far as ET's go I have to agree with Rick, more info is needed to even get a ballpark idea of what that SWEET baby will do. Good luck!

More info.

Okay, hope this helps.

Cam is a Summit 218 intake/228 exhaust lobe separation is 114
Pistons are flat-top (forged or cast not sure)
Motor bored 40 over
Stock gear ratio (for just a while longer)
Stock heads (ported/polished/shaved)
long tube headers
dual exhaust/glasspacks
tires are 195/75/R14 (soon will go to a 60 series on the back R14)
weight is (I'm guessing) around 2700
I don't know what my compression ratio is (somebody he'p me)
C-4 tranny

That's about all that I know, until my memory gets jogged. Thanks ya'll, Preston

 

Motor goes in Sunday! (Unless something drastic happens) Ya'll wish me luck. And don't worry, pics will be taken. Preston
