Performance Build in process

[Donovan]

Yep but it’s a little too late, both of my builds shipped out already.

Ah Darn! Let me pm you.

Cody, will you hear back on dyno numbers? If so, were either of them going to be dynoe'd before forced induction was introduced, or would that just be a waste of time as that's not what they were built to do?

both trucks already had whipples on them, I’ll get numbers after they are ran in the dyno but as far as all motor power goes, the same build would work decently for it.

Care to hazard a guess as to what the build would put down NA? What are you expecting with the Whipple?

Too many factors involved, if you did all bolt ons possible it should get around 375-400whp on a standard size tire. Would be my best guess

I'd be thrilled with that. I think more than anything I just want more muscle in the exhaust note that comes with bigger hp. How would you rate the 6.2 as it comes from Ford, seeing that you've been up close and personal? It would appear to me, based on how they seem to last, that it's not exactly stressed at 411 hp.

What I'm saying is I've had Chevy small blocks that putting an intake, headers and even a plain jane cleanup of the heads net big hp gains where, for example, I remember having to spend thousands, header, cams, injectors, intake, exhaust etc, etc to get 35 hp more from my E36 M3 engine. I always chalked it up to closer tolerances on the BMW and more "rough edges to smooth on the small block Chevy" if that makes any sense.

well I’m a ford guy all the way, love pushrod engines as well. However that’s where the Chevy loses to the modern OHC design. Just much better in terms of longevity when built right.

Picked up a 6.2 core if anyone out there want to start building it..!

You seemed to do pretty okay if this thread is any indication, I'd just leave it in your capable hands

Looks like that came out of a HD van, I wonder if the transmission dip stick would fit in a Raptor.
