actually if we want to get really smart like the internet experts, the corvette auto trans drive train loss is 17.6%

362.56hp LOL

with my tune, i think i'll be ok.

but seriously, that 340 you got rules. good luck with that

far be it from me to stir the shit to make it stink worse, but his car runs 12's all day, everyday. where is your 12 second car?

[random-strike]

when this motor gets into my vette it'll easily shit on mid 12s

[Conceptz-X]

I was thinking the same.  I hope it works for you Johnny,

I haven't fucked with SBC's in years. Been strictly on 4age's and cleveland's for the last 5 years.  I have some SBC shit still at my mom's house in NY, but it does nothing for me here in AL. 

[random-strike]

i've had several 12 second cars so its not really a big deal. but thats nice that you guys care enough to remember my cars over the years 

[random-strike]

yes and the duster is smaller than the challenger.

14.7@94 was fast back then. not today

for a stock factory car 14.7 on bias ply tires and loose as fuck suspension/spring rates is pretty damn good.

yes, that car was very fast in 1970.

but i think it had radial tires in 1970

johnny you are by far the dumbest pile of steamy worthless shit ive ever seen post on this site.

the fact you still try to argue down 17 people who obviously have 7 lifetimes more knowledge on this subject than you amazes me.

your shit sucks,  your cars suck.  your dog is a piece of shit,  and you and your old lady both wipe your pussies dry with the same fuckin towel.   boo ya  niggerfag.

your reply to this post is irrelevent because this is truth and everyone knows it,  sooooo  choke on a dogdick you fucken hick

HHH

[1Fast68]

Still bias ply tires in 1970 ......

Still bias ply tires in 1970 ......

actually 1970 was the first year radial tires were available. but im sure some cars had them and some didn't

Ok smart ass, well the challenger in question rolled off the assembly line sporting some bias plys

[patsmx5]

Wow.

LT1's and LT4's aren't the same thing, so no reason to go posting numbers LT4 cars make as they will be higher than you anyways.

for comparison sake, you say your going to make 400 RWHP

My motor is

340 cid
10:1
230/230 @.050 480/480
Performer RPM heads (240 cfm @.500)
Aig gap intake
750 holley DP
1 5/8 - 1 3/4 step headers, 3" Exh. with X pipe to the bumper

Car goes 12.50's all day long, its a bracket car, not meant to be fast.

and for the numbers ...... 280rwhp @5800 , 280RWTQ @4800 On a mustang dyno, so figure 300 on a DJ.

I have more cam, probably more head flow, surely a less restrictive exhaust. So where do you plan on coming up with this extra 100 WHP?

cubic inches, compression, and rpms? 

you have a hard time reading don't you? i said 450-475 crank hp. thats aprox 350-375rwhp. which is what it'll make i bet. with a bigger cam i could make 400rwhp easily

a stock LT4 makes more power than your motor. why would anyone build a 340 with 10:1 compression and NOT PUT IT IN A TRUCK LOL

that motor of yours belongs in a old ass ram dualie hauling hay

you figure 25+% drivetrain loss?  jesus

[random-strike]

nah its prob around 20%

[random-strike]

be nice its my first car and engine

[Teg2boo]

I just realised with your comment that I buy an average of 1.5 car/year lol

not trying to encourage, but this is bar none the funniest shit i've read in weeks.

hotrex is like a train.

is big, full of compressed dead shit, and starts slow, but that shit gets rollin and BOOM nothin stops it, not even a fuckin train full of valtrex

Nonsense.  Try asking him for a tracking number sometime.

[bigdaddyvtec]

I just about peed my pants

Nice work JD

Didn't you say 2 pages ago that no one who is intelligent uses driveline loss %'s???

Holy fuckin contradiction.


U truly are the coolest guy ever.

U truly are the coolest guy ever.

you're too stupid to understand. you can't use a blanket %  because a 300hp engine would take 60hp to spin the drive train and a 600hp engine would take 120hp to spin the drivetrain. thats idiotic if you think because the engine makes more power its going to rob twice as much to spin the same shit. that is moronic.

you can say something takes a % of crank hp to spin the drive train, but you can't use a flat percent.

lets say it takes about 60hp to spin an auto trans and the rest...

if you have a 300hp engine it'll take 20%
if you have a 600hp engine it'll take 10%

no one in their right mind would believe that the same drive train would rob 60hp from a 300hp motor and 120hp from a 600hp motor

[1Fast68]

A torque converter doesn't care how much power you make, its going to slip the same percentage regardless.

The rest of the drive train is a different story, but as a rule of thumb blanket percentages will usually get you close.

I'll agree with the idiotic part of your assertion.

Counter point. So if I build a 300hp, 600hp, 10,000hp, and 1,000,000hp engine and put them behind the same drivetrain, if we assume the drivetrain doesn't fail, could I approach 100% efficient drivetrain as hp -> infinity? By your logic, yes.

nope

do you think if you had a 10000hp engine it would take 2000hp to spin a corvette drive train, but a 300hp engine would take 60hp to spin it.

 :yes:
