Was exactly what Edelbrock tech/tuning support was doing to me. Yet I come here and see a handful of customers with same issue. I just got fed up with dealing with them and went aftermarket tuning. Much better.
Does anybody else have a 700 rpm idle and pulling timing of 0 to -2. After long drives I get this at start up
Can you be more specific?
Yea warm idle of 700-718 ignition timing is 0 then if I rev the motor and it isles again it goes to -2, wot throttle is great all the time it’s partial throttle that the RPMs wopple alittle
Haven't done any WOT pulls yet, but I'm seeing about 5-10* over ambient when cruising around the city, for comparison, it used to run 15-20 when cruising around the city, I haven't done any highway driving, but I suspect highway driving will prob be where I get the coolest results. Once I find some time I'll do some pulls and compare to my previous logs to see how it does with IATs under boost.
Check out what just showed up, upgraded H/E for my car, this one uses a dual 1.25" row Griffin core, so not only is it thicker than the standard unit, but the rows are larger so you have more surface area for the water to cool off with.
This was made to be a direct replacement for the Edelbrock unit too, meaning you can bolt it up to the Edelbrock HE brackets.
Griptec?
Interested in one of these if they become availableGot the H/E installed, it fit great, I did need to slot the bolt holes in order to let me move the HE forward enough to not touch the AC condenser, but this took like 5 minutes to do with a stepped drill bit.
From what I can tell, the Edelbrock H/E is a single 1.25" row core(the over all core thickness is 1.5"), this means this new H/E should cool much better given it's a dual 1.25" row core. It's about 1" shorter overall, but the added rows should more than easily offset the loss in height.
This unit should outperform the VMP triple pass, the VMP triple pass is not as tall and 50% of it ends up being covered by the impact bar, this unit takes up the entire front area, so it's exposed to more air. The VMP is also about 2" thick, so at best they are using a dual 1" row core, this unit uses a dual 1.25" row Griffin core, end tank is 3", the core itself is about 2.65"
No, I ordered a normal 2.75" pulley, they're like $40, and I already have a green 812 belt sitting here since I ordered a few sizes when I did the 3", if it does slip then I may order the griptek version but the gripec pulley eats up belts, friends belt was eaten up until it was just stubs after about 30 passes
I'll post updates as I have them, right now I'm waiting for slightly warmer whether to be able to do some WOT pulls so see how much better it does to the Edelbrock unit
