That's gonna be his DD, he's got a 90 gt vert with a 5.0 with a a supercharger. Blew the rearend out of it last year. He said it wasnt too bad to swap out new gears, told him good cause it's just gonna eat the new set too. Hasn't had it out yet, putting in a roll cage and redoing the whole body on it

Yeah, I got that 71 with the 351, from a dig and a forty roll, couldn't believe I was a six.

That was after he blew it up on the first dyno tune, valve hit the piston . That's what happens when you buy somebody else's build, had to rebuild the motor after one week of own it,

At least you know what abuse you've done to it, otherwise it just hope and prayer. I like new too.

I just pulled the trigger and purchased the 80mm TB and tune. I plan to go with the JacFab ported intake with the spacer but I'm not sure if I want to go in steps or not.How messy will it be to change the TB after the silicone? Has anyone put gasket material instead of using the silicone?

He actually doesn't send silicone anymore. Instead he sends an anerobic sealer. Much cleaner and a better way to seal this application.

First revision since the 80mm throttle body, and now with my wideband controller....

Much much smoother throttle and quite a bit more power after 50% throttle. Seems like she is just now waking up. Excited to see what is in store for this build now!

Hoping here soon. With a wideband we can get the tuning done perfectly much faster than before.

And then i have to figure out a time to get it done!
