 Subject: Whats next for the little 318?
IP: Logged
Message:
Well my gears and locker are broken in now and I'm craving more power since I have traction. Where should I go from here?
95 dak w/ 318 and 46rh (V6 my @$$)
8.25 diff with 3.90's and a lock-rite locker
krc 206 equivilant cam
1.6 rr's
ported and polished TB and intake
very mild head porting w/ 3 angle valve job
MP pcm
MSD 6A ignition, brass cap/rotor, msd wires, 3923's
carsound cat and borla muffler
electric fans
14x2 air filter
and that just about does it.
I used to have some 21 lb/hr Bosch design III injectors that helped with the top end but I'm getting errors from my pcm 'feedback control circuit error' says my Snap-on scanner. I'm sure if I needed the extra fuel flow or not but the consistency helped out alot.
So whats next? I've got far too much ching in this truck to stop now.
Any ideas what it'd run at the track? I've never taken my truck out since I put the v8 in.
Thanks for any ideas.

Headers; and keep an eye out for a 9.25 rear. Sounds like you've got a nice combination there.

i have nearly the same set up, except without roller rockers yet, but i do have the headers, i will be putting in a 2400 stall convertor, and transgo on friday, so i could let you know if it's worth it. Mopar headers will really smooth things out for you "icing on the cake"

How do you like your locker?
Who made your fans? Were they an easy mod?

My fans actually came out of a nissan maxima. I'm not sure what year but they pull alot of air through. They came with a camaro rolling chassis I bought as a race car so I don't have the specifics.
I have trouble running hot on summer days in traffic. I have a 180 deg t-stat allready so I"m thinking its radiator time but they're pretty damn expensive. Especialy for a college student such as myself.
The locker is really nice but its a bit harsh for the street. You have to be really careful around slow speed turns or else you'll be doing donuts. It gives awesome traction in a straight line and doesn't effect highway driving much. If I floor it from a stop I'll leave two nice parallel black stripes for a good 50 feet, but with a little feathering of the gas I can actually take my friend's 350 T/A (trans am) off the line :-) :-)
The BFG Radial T/A's 225 /75/15s also helped a bit but not anywhere near as much as the locker
