Don Terrill’s Speed-Talk

somewhere on facebook was a guy with a full transam pro-touring 69' with a similar setup. Lots and lots of tuning. No expense spared either

Eric do you think the HV 1016 "sucked" because of the way it is cast?
The port exit, as you know, isn't even really a clean port exit its so small and square on top too.

Just dug out my old Sept. 2008 Chevy Hi performance Mag with their 16 manifold test. The Brodix HV1016 of the 6 modern dual planes tested had low lowest avg. hp and torque. Not by much only 2-3 ft-lb of torque and 2-3 hp less than most others the RPM air gap was 7ft-lb and 6 hp better average. Inte...

BRODIX HV1016 This is a manifold I've always wanted to try and never seen or read a test on. I own at least 10 dual planes and this one by far is the biggest casting with the largest runners from the carb surface. The casting quality is also the best I own. The divider is almost completely gone as c...

I spoke with TFS yesterday. The 200cc CNC version -new casting from the 175 the tech said. Should be on their website in a month.

I just pick up these vintage dual planes to maybe do some porting to. Neigher of them have been run both are new. The 2101 Eddy one is so old it doesn't even say Performer on it yet. I am thinking 1978 model. 20221128_200005.jpg Headed down same hole with the Weiand 8016. I have a ported AirGap on ...

Here is one of the big threads. Yes the exhaust port bolt hole relationship talk is in here too

BTW: I bought a set after lots of problems with my standard profilers. Oil and header fitment

Be really interested in the capabilities of this casting
Would be cool if it could flow in the 290s and make 600* Hp
And be made to look original

TFS was advertising 200cc CNC versions last year. COVID must of delayed?

Anyone know anything about these heads: https://bangshift.com/general-news/new-products/trick-flows-aluminum-double-hump-small-block-heads-coming-soon-with-200cc-intake-ports-and-full-cnc-porting/ I have seen some info and reviews on the 170 head, just like to know if anyone has worked with these, ...

I have a set of 210cc 71cc profilers ported by Speier. have the original paperwork. Valves are still installed. 2.08/1.6 STD spacing Have spare parts never used. Studs/guides. I had shaft rockers on them. Painted orange pulled off running 406” and went to smaller cc heads. Message if interested

Will race gas go down? It should some!!! Why should the price of racing fuel go down? The price of racing fuel is only loosely coupled to the price of crude oil. Race fuel has no real connection to pump gas, either in composition, packaging, distribution or pricing. Pump gas may contain over 400 di...

Today I paid $1.39 for regular gas. In 2002 I paid about the same 2002 Sunoco 104+ was 3.25-3.75 gallon. Today? $12-15 gallon in a can 2002 VP Ms103 or Ms106 was around $6.00 Today? $14-20 gallon depend on bulk buy Cam2 (100) was $7.49 at pump Today Will race gas go down? It should some!!! C75CE836-...

Why not use the 5.850 rods? Available and provide more cam clearance. Use a 1.25 c/h piston and let piston come out of hole .012” or use custom pistons, or just use a slightly shorter stroke crank if you don’t like a slightly positive deck. When buying a new crank custom work that doesn’t cost much ...

Some of the biggest name is the sport buy from here

383 cid and 250 cfm heads should get ya 485 hp very easy if you want to run atleast .550" lift, if your not inclined to run that much lift then you need to root around to get 270 cfm from those heads. For my Dollar I would go for a set of AFR or the Edelbrock e heads. Indeed sir. This looks li...
