I will be attending the Great lakes pantera dyno session this Saturday. Anyone like to guess what kind of numbers 1332 will post? Here are the details from my car.
Disclaimer - I worked with a good shop in Lombard Illinois and they rebuilt the engine in 1332 for me. I have little experience in this field but with a few e-mails to George and others I decided on the following re-build.
The engine was disassembled and thermal cleaned. The block was bored 0.30 over, painted original Ford blue. A complete valve job was performed with cutting for the guide plates. New cam bearings and freeze plugs were installed and all components were properly balanced during assembly. The flowing list of components was installed during re-assembly.
Eagle 393 stroker kit, Cloyes Timing set, Manley Valves, comp cams springs, Rocker studs, guide plates, studs, push rods and ARP Main studs, Howards Cam hydraulic flat tappet cam (part number 23001) and Howards cam roller rockers, Clevite lifters, Melling oil pump, MSD Blaster II coil, Pertronix ignition , Holley Street Avenger 770 carburetor , Aftermarket DeTomaso valve covers, High flow water pump from Collectors choice in WI
The flywheel was resurfaced and a custom bronze throwout bearing was installed (from Marlin). A new clutch was ordered from PIM and installed. A set of original pantera ceramic coated headers were installed and connected to the original pantera exhausts. Heads are original 4V quench heads.
Anyone want to guess what type of numbers this combo will generate on the dyno? Did I give enough data to estimate?
Thanks
Anson
