going from KB back to N/A maybe, thoughts?

Phoenix · Aug 25, 2017

So there is a chance that my car may be going back to N/A if it doesnt get sold soon. (Shameless plug)

That being said, i no longer have my stock manifold so the world is my oyster.

if you had to do an E85 N/A setup using the stock camshafts, what would you do?

GT350?
F150?
302?
CJ?

what about intake manifold? i had the JLT and didnt like that the IAT got ridiculously high with the open airbox.

I have some ARH LT already with a corsa sport, MMR OPG/CG, and the auto is stock with 3.15 rear gears.

thoughts?

I've seen a few posts on here with guys getting some solid numbers as well as great performance with the CJ, as well as the GT350. I recently bought the GT350 because I live in CA, and the CJ won't fly under out lame laws.

Check out evil 5.0's build thread. You can do everything but the cams and get some solid numbers. I'm copying him right now matter of fact. I get my ride back next Saturday and I'll have a little more input. The cobra jet w/PMAS,LU47 injectors,and Lund tune. You have everything else for the most part and that will make great power

GT350 with it's respective throttle body and intake...decent at low rpm, good at high, and the cold air intake seals pretty good.

How is the driveability with the CJ TB? That's one issue with the KB. The big TB makes it hard to nail down driveability

What's wrong with the whipple?

With the CJ your best bet is the twin 65. Drivability with it from what I hear is better than stock. I've heard the monoblade is a little finicky as well as the gt350 TB. but a good tuner can solve that

What's wrong with the Kenne Bell? Why are you wanting to go back to NA?

Honestly I'm wanting to sell the car and get a better daily. My commute is 20 mins of highway and at $2.50-$3.00 a gallon of 93 at 20mpg it's gonna add up. Also I may end up going turbo. The KB is great for a weekend/racecar but there are just a few small things that annoy me about how the Kit is designed.

For drivability and better MPG GT350 is a solid choice. CJ is max effort N/A and is also a solid choice but the lack of imrc plates it takes a hit in fuel economy. F-150 is something new some people are using which takes a HP hit up top but good TQ numbers, also has imrc plates like stock GT manifold and GT350 manifold.

Your probably not gonna be getting 20mpg with e85. I just finished a tank at 230 miles mixed driving. Says I have 1 mile left which is really like a half mile on e85 I hope I make it to the gas station tomorrow

I have a stock takeoff manifold you can basically have in corpus, assuming it doesn't float away :(
