AFR210s all the way.....
These Trick Flow heads are a really nice head' date=' probably good for 400 HP easily. I just bought this set that are still in new in the box sitting on my desk here, Except for this one I took out to inspect and take pics of).Trick Flow 195 CC intake Kenny Duttweiler signature series, CNC combustion chambers with the 1.47†springs good for up .540†lift, NEW still in the box. I’m considering selling them as I am seriously considering a more radical cylinder head for my current V-8 project. These heads are the Summit part number TFS 30400002-CNC. They came with screw in studs and guide plates 2.02â€/1.60†Stainless valves as well. Very nice looking heads for sure. If I wasn’t wanting something more Race oriented, I would definitely run these heads, (And I still just might do that any way). These CNC chambers are GORGEOUS! The castings are very nice and clean, comparable to Edelbrock as far as casting quality goes. In looking at the ports where they meet the valve seats, as cast, the transition is very nice, I see no reason to pocket port.
If I do sell these TFS heads, it is a toss up between the GM Fast Burn and the AFR 210 Race Head…
Decisions decisions…

Gotta love these chambers…
Exhaust looks pretty good as well. Seats blend into the ports VERY nicely as cast…
Intake ports are very nice and clear, showing studs and guide plates as well.

I have ran both cams XR276HR and 282. The 276 is a very torqey cam and the 282 seems better over the whole range. Traction was a problem for me with the 276 however but Im sure youll love either...

Hey Dr Hunt! I guess I made a bigger improvement cause I was coming down from the 13.9 range. Actually before I changed the torque convertor I was running 12.5s. You started at 12.3s so the law of deminishing returns were stronger on your upgrade I suspect.

Ill add a bit here. With my 350 and stock heads Comp 262 flat tappet hydraulic cam, stock iron heads, 650 Vac Secondary and 700R4 with 354 rear and 2 1/4 duals with Dart alum intake and stock convertor I ran a 13.7 to 13.9 all day long.
Now with a simple head change to AFR 190s, 3500 stall and Roller retrofit to Comp Cams XR282HR and 2 1/2 exhaust, and 750DP I ran a 11.91 best on all motor.
Heads are a big deal, then CAM, then Torque convertor in my case. I gained a .5 in the quarter just by changing the torque convertor!

Thats right LT!

Like Stony said...who doesnt...

Thats really weird, I dont understand how you can run a 13.16 at only 100MPH with such a bad 60? Usually hooking up well with a NA engine 100MPH will yield you around 13.6 to 13.9 or so but Ive never seen that low before....too wierd...do you have a time slip? What this suggests is that you got out of the hole and down the 1/8th very fast then fell on your face on the big end,,,,was this the case? 8.6 1/8th is a mid 13 time in the 1/4.

Thanks Dan! Yeah your car is awesome. Im thinking of the MSA GNose and working off that. Does the headlight buckets still fit with the front subtle fenders?

Alex get out of town man....look em up later!
-
That would be called a roll bar..lol!

Grumpy I have a 396 in my Orange Z but only a few show pics, nothing in detail. Ill get em for ya in 5 years!!!lol.

Does anyone know if the Subtle Z front flairs can be molded nicely into a GNose front dam? Im thinking of a new setup with the rear YZ flairs..using a GNose.

Hey I was in 2d Battalion 5th Marines from 86 to 1990!!! OOHRAH! Gotta love that Fortaje (sp) also in 4th Marines...

Thats sounds like a great deal. I was looking at SpeedoMotive last night. I think Ill take your advice and go that route. By the time I get back I can buy just about anything I want I guess. Ill be sure to inquire your advice when time comes. I like the idea of a raised deck etc so it minimizes the machine work!

Well said Pete...thanks!

Ill bet you broke the pin that goes thru the gears....I broke three of them now but was cutting 1.5s and 1.6s on an open diff.....

Dammit guys now I wanna take the next boat back.....I wont be able to sleep at night lol.. Well Im contemplating on getting a 400 SBC 60 over from JNJ Racing cheap. Looking at shipping right now. Thanks for the advice Mike I appreciate it. When I get to the point of collecting cams and pistons etc I will get with you guys before I buy. I am getting Ross's billet stubs next month and the Z31 billet adaptors first. I have the axles and two LSDs already. Next will be the block then start on the internals so it will be a little while but I will have everything I need by next year. Im thinking of coming home next summer for a couple of weeks and may build the engine during that time....I may be dreaming but its ok to dream I guess.....one thing for sure is ILL BE BACK! You guys def need to come to San Angelo when I get back because they dont have any restrictions at all! We could run 8s and they wouldnt care! They are so cool that way...lol! Thanks for all the HP output numbers guys!

Thanks guys...well I just want to do it right the first time. Dr Hunt, we can go to the track together but Ill be watching you race in front of me sounds like...lol. Just as long as its a Z Im cool with it! haha. Thanks Mike for the input. I have DD Dyno but Im at my Familys house right now. So maybe a stroked 350 to 396 would be a better option....I hear it takes lots of machining etc...Damn I miss turning wrenches.....damn it! Hell Ill be 47 before I can get back and only 42 right now......those R200s will be getting alot heavier by then I expect. Dr. Hunt and Mike we need to meet in Dallas in the future and go racing at the Motorplex!

As most of you know Im in Japan for awhile and am collecting parts for the new Zette rebuild when I get back. I need some advice and HP numbers for my planned build. I wanted to go 383 but Id rather go 406/412. With that said here is what I am collecting parts for:
SBC 400 60 over (412) 3.75 stroke forged knife edge.
forged rods full floaters and SRP pistons with total seal rings
AFR 190 Heads 2.02/1.60 68CC Chambers or AFR 210 heads 2.08/1.60 76CC Chambers
Roller internals
Cam maybe the Comp XR286HR
Single plain intake Victor jR.
Sanderson 1 3/4 full length headers
Holley 850DP
cAN ANYONE GIVE ME APPROX hp ON dESKTOP ETC?
I want this to be streetable but fast on the strip. Im also doing Ross;s stub and axle upgrade with the R230.
Can anyone chime in...I am collecting parts as we speak! I have the AFR 190s already but would the 210s yield any better?

Linky no worky...

Thats easy! Just barely insert into the diff and count to three and push quickly and hard and they will pop in. It may take a couple of times and a few curse words but they will go. make sure you have the short and longer axle on the proper side.

Hey Mike! Hows everything in Texas? Im doing OK but REALLY miss my cars. I bought a used 1993 ES300 LEXUS here for $800..lol. I Miss the track days...the good thing is that Im collecting parts like a SOB. Gonna get Ross's Billet stubs as well. Im gonna tear down the entire car when I get back (if I get back) and start from scratch doing a reassemble, paint and electrical upgrade as well as axle and diff upgrade etc. The engine will be done during that time as well. I still plan a 383 long rod but wish I could find a good 400. How are the track times going Mike? I cant remember if you had the illuminas or not. Hey send me a pic of your car and engine when ya get a chance!
Out....

Well I ran a 150 shot on them with no issues for a total of approx 525 crank HP. ran a 10.9 and had no probs....Its the timing and detonation you have to worry about. Those hypers will break easily though. I broke two skirts just by trying to install the damn pins before. Scary but I guess they serve thier purpose.
