Are you going with 1050 on Victor? Or am I reading picture wrong

Just as a comparison first picture is un-port Victor second one fully ported Victor. I was blown away in the difference in hp the ported Victor made over the un-ported one, that was just port matched to my heads.

Ya hard to say. I'm just playing around with this intake to see what the car will do. I have the Northwind 4150, the Northwind 4500 and now this Victor 4150 which I'm doing. I'm gonna try all 3 this summer see what happens. I didn't do back to back testing with both Northwind intakes, but at end of season we ran the N.W. 4500 and ran a best number at our track. (10.12)

Maybe this will help, when we dyno with the un-ported Victor and the 10.50, after a few pulls, he said you need more carb, so he’s on the phone with Patrick at Pro Systems, Who he deals exclusively with. Two days later carb shows up, first pull it picks up 30 more hp, turns out its a 1150 cfm. I’m not running a big roller 739 lift. 265/276. 505 ci. But they are wide port heads.

With limited information on your dyno sheet and some guessing it looks like an 1150 was a good choice.

Interesting how thin the port divider walls are in the plenum on the unported manifold verses the port divider walls in the plenum are on the ported manifold.

That because both intakes are ported, Gach is confused again.

It will most likely be mid summer before the intake swap test at the dragstrip. I just installed Wilwood Dynalite Pro Series front brakes which dropped 12 lbs off the rotor/hub assembly on each side. I'm also switching from a clutch fan to a dual Derale setup with a new aluminum rad. It will be interesting to see if the car picks up a little with less rotating mass and electric fans.

Nothing to celebrate yet..went to the track Friday with my son. I was more concentrated with his tune then driving mine. Mine was way off..11.1 at 123..thought it was just how hot it was turned out I had a misfire on one plug..was also puffing some smoke at the end of the track when I let off. I'm hoping the smoke was just the one bad plug..checked compression in all cylinders 185 to 190 ..all the plugs looked good except for number 5 which was fouled.
Car feels a little different on the street..maybe a touch less throttle response cruising but seems to rev out better. I need to sort out my current issue before the track next time.
