[QUOTE="olgreydog7, post: 7727686, member: 65150"] How can you not expect someone to take offense to that? I planned this build out and researched it alot before I went with it. I also considered PSRs, the Sully, various other cams, a Paxton, a Procharger, and an Eaton swap. The guys "playing expert" used data from their own experience, not just cut and pasted from the internet. Well, at least nasvt, tmhutch, and Naz, who I think are the only ones that posted such info. If you want to doubt the knowledge of those guys, go ahead. Alot of people doubted that the Earth was round at one time too. As for getting Naz's parts, yes I did get his intake and he ported my heads. Try to find an FR500 intake, there are not many around. I actually bought that intake from someone else, just happened to be who he sold it to. Since he has a good rep on here and other sites, and he made good power with that intake, why not get the same person to port my heads? Making power is about matching parts, not just bolting them on, which it sounds as if you would agree to that. How am I clueless as to what's going on? I may have a cam timing issue and I am definitely running out of fuel at 6100 rpm (curiously that is 400 rpm before my power takes a dive when it should pull to 7200 rpm). So Mr Genius Car Man, what is my problem if it is not that? Or do you just think that a full bolt on H/C/I Cobra will only make 346rwhp? I'm not sure what you mean about the goals. Ultimately, I want about 450 rwhp na. On the stock shortblock my goal is 380 rwhp. That was a reason I bought the parts I did. They should get me to my goal once I get the bb/stroker. I'm going to assume you think I want to rebuild Naz's car. I don't. It's a bad ass car, just like droptops, but not what I want. Really what I want is a car that will take a Z06, ride like a M3, out handles a 911, and idles like a stock Cobra. Is that specific enough for you? The thread did get a bit off topic, but I kinda expected a FI vs NA argument to break out. It always seems to happen when an NA car makes less than the owner expected, but never when an FI car blows up. Thanks, pretty much addresses his accusations in a calm and reasonable manner. [/QUOTE]
