Different person rework my heads & built my intake. Based on the flow #s he got he recommended the bigger cam & header tube specs.
Not sure it would’ve turned out better but it sho would’ve been cheaper. I have saw tiger builds make good power & some not make good. Our 5 builds looked good on dyno but on the track I’ve yet to see a performance upgrade. We’re at Charlotte for the 4 wide so I will have a better idea tomorrow but I ran 9.90 @ 158 here in 17 with my 535 edelbrock combo that had a 1200 quick fuel. I just put a 1175 carb on my motor so we’ll see how it does. Dad ran 8.90 @ 165 with his 535 edelbrock combo & has been 8.90 @ 165 with his 5 combo. We added 30-35 cubic inch , head flow cfm went from 420s to over 500 & both got bigger cams.
