Not a whole buch of porting. Widened PRP, profiled guide bosses, VJ and blended in, and opened exhaust throat, some port matching to a junk Chinese manifold.

Dyno Flowz Spreadsheet
The pages are labeled accordingly. The yellow highlighted boxes in the page labeled "Charts" are drop boxes. Select the parameter you want to see and the runs you want to compare. It will auto populate what you have chosen. It also formats individual rows so you can quickly see what was best to worst at each rpm. I did however, unlike some on here, didn't remove BSFC. I hope that's not against rules.

thanks for going to the effort of sharing part # of springs etc,save a guy a lot of heart ache concerning retainer to guide clearance etc,is the cam a shelf or a custom grind??

Re: Real Budget Vortec Engine build
The spreadsheet wont open for me, comes up with error.. Is there Peak HP/TQ and RPM someone could share?
Re: Real Budget Vortec Engine build
If you don't have excel it likely will not work. I opened it again to verify that it works. It may open in the older versions of excel but will loose much of the functionality I put into the spreadsheet. Best pull was 499hp@6000/485ft/lbs@4700.

Re: Real Budget Vortec Engine build
I havent viewed the spreadsheet yet but if you look at the last 2 or 3 pulls where its showing 480ish pounds and look at coolant temp on those you will see we were playing with cold water in the engine. I kind of wanted to see the effect of it and he wanted more facebook power so...steve cowan wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2019 1:07 am C H A D,

I believe the best pull with normal water temps was 465ftlbs and 488 or 484hp. Some changes from the beginning of the thread were made. A used set of pac 1518 springs were used on it. Joe Creason donated those. 1.94 intake valve 52 degree seat 1.5 ex 50 degree. 238 248 .525 .500 104 cam was used....Comp Marine lobes.
It runs good. Brenden is ecstatic about it....."Dale" seems like a nice tight little motor and as always plenty of things i would do differently now...
Re: Real Budget Vortec Engine build
Nothing wrong with a low-temp glory pull. I'd want to do it too just to see. Well done.
Re: Real Budget Vortec Engine build
Yes, it's not compatible with my excel either, may be easiest just to post the dyno sheet.

C H A D,
Thanks for the updated information on camshaft etc,
Just watched "Dale " on the dyno, sounds good and healthy right to 6500rpm
Nice job
