bbf c-head ideas
ive been thinking real hard at 2013-2014 season taking some time off to build one bad ass C-headed deal
now ive thought about the turbo deal but to be honest its just out of my leauge - so what would you build ?
600 cubes
632 ?
or de stroke and turn the beast 9000 rpm ?
now be honest its a small tire car @ 3350 #,s
there are to many chevys building huge power and the fords are just not there -so im gonna take 2 years off and build a kiler piece -just not sure whats better ,i know ill need titanium valves and aluminum rods and big compression and cam
so tell me what you guys think i would like 1200+ and 2 carbs are very doable if needed

I don't see a reason to have titanium Valves at 7200 rpm then is this correct

Re: bbf c-head ideas
I'd put in ti. intake valves for sure. A tunnell ram and 2 carbs will operate higher and make more power.
Re: bbf c-head ideas
Ti valves will make the welds on the oil pan leak......................

The question should be, "how much power can it make", not whether or not it flows the best.
Re: bbf c-head ideas
Flow is one small part of an engine equation and is important, but don't get hung up on flow numbers. Just look at what Blake did with his P head deal, the flow numbers don't add up to the hp it made. Have it built by someone who has the experience with these engines, because no matter how good you percieve yourself as a mechanic, unless you have experience on a daily basis with these engines, you are going to just be throwing money into the wind and not getting what you could. You would be surprised at how reasonable the labor is vs. the parts required for a build like this.

Re: bbf c-head ideas
Mine made 1088 @ 7400/7500 rpm, with one single dyno QFX carb. Dyno'd on gas
Jet Boat, Lem and Charlie build.
My cam
Some wacky adapter to fit my tunnel ram to one carb. Actually, the top of my intake is wacky and built for an Enderle and my T-2 set up.
At the time, this was the highest horsepower C headed, 598 engine on Mike's dyno built by the above. If may have been de-throned since then.
I'll post the sheet for the first time.

C-460 combination
Sometimes all you need to do is keep it simple. Keep the intake port small, just cartridge roll the runner, no increase in cross section. Focus on the bowl and valve job. Get after the cam, compression, and carb.
