Re: [Amc-list] 401 oil mods

Nick,
   I must have missed that post og the 500 HP street 401 Could you post the info on it again? Or just email it to me?
   I wish more folks put their combo's up on the net, when I built my 401 for my gremlin I posted every detail on the AMC forum. It is still there in the archives.
   
   I  look forward to your future dyno results. I will post ours with pics and possibly video friday or monday.

  Davis, 

I agree. Some think secrets about what they do to an engine are what make them seem knowledgeable and in demand (some even like we are competing for a prize). I have a couple 70 390s that we will probably dyno if the customer gives me the go ahead. I would be more than happy to list the specs on any of them. They are both 10.5:1 engines on pump gas. Both have hydraulic roller cams with very different specs as one was put together for a Rebel Machine using the stock exhaust manifolds and intake so it will be interesting to see how well it worked. 

I did list a while back the specs for a 401 we built with ported Edelbrock heads and a roller cam for a 70 shadow mask AMX that was in Popular Hot Rodding 2 years ago. It had over 500 hp on pump gas, never got about 185 degrees and the guy could drive it anywhere. 

I have another 401 with the Indy heads, solid roller cam using my shaft rocker set up that I will be putting on the dyno later this spring. We plan to test it with a carb and then switch over to the new Fuel Injection kit we are working on to see where the differences are.
