Anyone wanna take a shot?

How much horsepower does everyone think a partial bridgeport (90 N/A Motor) will put out, running 10psi (SC) and a 700cfm carb? I am one step closer!


And how badly f'ed up will my rear end be?

I'll take a swing, around 325-350hp, just a guess, porting doesn't have as big affect on a boosted engine as on N/A

I think porting makes a bigger difference, correct me if I am wrong.

It's an N/A motor with a supercharger on it. So estimating around 250-300 hp for the carbed partial bridge and maybe 100hp for the 10psi boost. Soul assassin made 550 with a full bridge and a single turbo (correct?) so the potential is there.

And how hard would it be to swap a 13B into a 3rd gen? Contorted huh ?

you may be right for this situation my brain was on the way a t2 is affected vs N/A, but power guesses were about the same, no?

Evil SWAG = approx 330hp at the flywheel if you are talking about a centrifugal supercharger, more with a good (no, not from the junkyard) intercooler added, and less with a roots blower.

FYI, you can't compare a supercharger/carb setup to a turbo/EFI setup, as the turbo and EFI are much more efficient and will yield much more performance at a given boost level. Also, there's no way that a BP 13B is going to make 550 hp at 10psig boost without a whooooole lot of laughing gas.

The rear end will probably be fine, but the NA transmission is going to take a beating if you like sidestepping the clutch while drag racing.

BTW, a 700cfm 4bbl carb sounds about right to me, but you may want to check with the supercharger manufacturer to make sure.
