Ryan what the heck did the dyno show?
I'll tell you what your MPH should be
I guess here is where it falls...personally I don't think LT-5 ports are small . I was actually quite shocked first time I went in & worked out the area. Area is area, an engine doesn't know if it has one port or ten, It's just drawing. I could look up some numbers of say small block Chev. C.S.A.'s compared to LT-5 just to see, can't remember off top of my head. Working on Hemi junk today , LOL. You've got your opinion Pete, That's cool, I respect that/you .

I can figure out MPH, that's not a problem. Just not a the top of my list. Not a big deal to me. I'll maybe take it to the track this year, we'll see. Did my 90 just for fun, had a couple oil leaks to fix, Cooler lines & Breaher Box plus I wanted to add valve seal's to the Exh. so while I was in there....
