My little 304 just pulled 440hp and 480lbft at the wheels with 10psi of boost. Stock bottom end with a turbo cam. The torque curve just shoots up instantly on boost.
Add some volume /diameter to that snirkel and port/ blend the ports into t/b. Ideally an inch larger than t/b size. Bellmouth entry of snorkel, then bug airbox with filter. And you should get closer back to 426hp. 👍
Hi Mate, I did all the machine work and assembly myself so not as much as normal. Having said that, the manifold, loom, haltech and all the efi gear cost as much if not more than what everything inside the motor cost lol. Alot of coin to make 400+hp but damn it sounds good and not another LS 👍
Nice to see a'5 litre vid for a change!.
Nice job.
I have a 530hp 5.0 rover v8.
Evolved over time
Larry Perkins KNEW how to build a Holden V8 Bathurst 1993, won qualifying, Won the Race, AWESOME everyone else was using Chev, NOT LP!! 👍👍👍👍

Planning to ditch the snorkel and get a VCM VT OTR to work with the setup 😎
That's a solid number for a 304 👍
Thanks mate!
looks like the poem chamber inlets could be enlarged for more air flow and power
That Iron Lion loves to roar! 🦁
Sound much better than LS motors and probably go as hard (without having to make as much power) too.
For sure! Thanks mate.
Hey mate what size push rod are you running 8.700”?
Hi mate, 8.900" from memory to get the right geometry and stem contact pattern.
What did the motor build set you back mate?
