Okay business has been good so i have opted to switch plans from a 200 to a 250. neat thing is the ease of t-5 to 250 over 200 plus MORE hp and torgue.
Have found a really good machinist who has really latched onto the hopped up 6 idea and is doing all my head mods at an excellant price. I was thinking a t-5 from a 4cyl- but it is rated at 240 ft/lb torgue. This build may exceed that.
Balanced 250 .30 over; with FSPP 268 D cam ;oversize SI valves 3 angle grind;ported and unshrouded head; FSPP dual headers;78 head with 3 carbs(autolite 108 or 112 in center and 34 icts on dual port adapters on progressive link. out board) and thinking about 1.6 roller rockers. Head is about done just havn't milled for cc's yet--zero deck the block and mill the head for 10/1 CR.
Was really likeing the idea of the low end snap of the small t-5 but wondering if i should go ahead and get the t-5 for a 302 as with the 250 and 350/1 rear end that won't be as important and hate the idea of ending up swapping out the t-5 in 6mo-a year cause the 4 cyl t-5 didn't have enough grunt.
The 4cyl. t-5 is cheaper and geared better but will it hold up pulling my 62 wagon around?
