HP and Tourqe Upgrade

5

Asked by John Mar 24, 2019 at 11:27 PM about the 1951 Chevrolet Styleline Deluxe Sport Coupe RWD

Question type: Car Customization

I have a 1952 Chevy Styline Deluxe on an S10 chassis. It has a 1972
Chevelle Malibu 350 with a mild cam and the stock hi flow heads. I am
adding the fitech 600hp Throttlebody style efi with built in computer and the
FiTech Commander 2 fuel control unit.

I am looking to up the HP and Tourqe without braking the bank. My goal is
nice aggressive loap and sound with somewhere in the neighborhood of
500hp and 480 toruqe. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Google SBC builds. Hotrod magazines have all sorts of dyno tested engine builds so all you have to do is follow their formula. I doubt you are going to get 500 hp without a good set of aftermarket heads plus a good cam and the proper valve train.
