gathering parts! What else do I need to finish.

nail it 95 · 11-01-2009, 01:05 AM

I have gathered a few parts from previous projects and bought a few. What would I need to finish it and run sd. And what should I expect out of the truck hp and times?
Stock gt40 intake and throttle body
19lb injectors
vortech fmu
windsor sr. heads
stock headers
1.6 roller rockers
roller conversion
crane cam 2020 cam (530/533 lift 262/270 duration 112 lsa)
30 over hyper sealed power pistons
stock crank and rods
msd digital 6 plus
dual flexlite fans with controller
vortech 8 psi
no cats running into true dual flowmasters with side exit
I do not have a tweecer or a tuning device as of yet.

Im thinking that cam is a lil big for sd.

It was in the truck when I bought it. 1.6 roller rocker, electric fans, and exhaust was the only mods on it before. I did not get to drive the truck because of a rod that started knocking, but it did idle just fine even with the bad rod bearing.

I still have the stage 3 trick flow cam but I think I will stay away. What happens if you run the stock fuel pressure regulator with an fmu. Will it work for know or should I go ahead and buy a regulator? And would the two pump trick work or should I find an inline pump?

tfs 3 is waaaaayyyy to big for sd. you can run the fmu on the stock reg. but with the mod you listed the 19s aernt going to keep up.

That brings up an interesting point. I know some cams aren't SD friendly in a 5.0, but don't those cams behave more mild in a 351? I had a guy the other day saying he was running a cam that was
210 INt
210 Exh
500 intake lift
525 exh lift
110º lobe sep

and that it idles just fine with speed density in an 87 mustang. It's just such a pita to swap a cam only to find out that it won't idle.

My E303 is :
220 Int /Exh
498 Lift
110º Lobe sep

It requires MAF..

I thought it was interesting because everyone gets hung up on the LSA at 114º or higher. This guy said that there was more to the equation than that, and that the 110º Int/Exh duration would allow it to build plenty of vacume for a SD truck to operate at idle w/o surging. Just thought it was interesting. Prolly wouldn't try it myself, but then again, I seem to buck the trend for better or worse.

I will probably stay away from the stage 3. If I were to go with 24 or 30 lb injectors would I still be able to run the sd if I were to put a different plate in the fmu?
