Changing classes, and now have a horsepower bogey to hit!
Have 313RWHP, need to get between 347 and 357.
Have 347RWTQ, need to get between 366 and 377.
In short, I need 35-45HP and 20-30TQ. Those numbers will put my base weight between 3300 and 3400lbs.
Current driveline mods:
C&L Racer CAI
Steeda billet CMCV deletes
Mezeire water pump
Roush underdrive pulleys
American Racing 1.75" longtubes, catless H-pipe, resonators, FR500S mufflers
Custom dyno tune (safe, but on the numbers)
fizanza aluminum flywheel
Spec 2+ clutch
Spydershaft aluminum driveshaft
3.73 rear cog
So.... what do you folks thing would be the solution? Do you think cams alone would do it? Which one? I need to be as close to a 9.5:1 power ratio AND a 9.0:1 torque ratio as possible, and I would prefer not to start building the engine internally. At that point, I might as well do a Coyote swap and toss in a restrictor.
Obviously, I'm looking for as broad a powerband as possible (not overly peaky), and would prefer not to spin the engine past 7K, but I am open to thoughts and suggestions.
Posted here, as you folks understand the need for a wide powerband, as opposed to the drag guys that are all about the peak numbers.
