I was going to just replace my oil drinking 402 short block but am considering moving up a little and would appreciate any advise or comments.
Right now I have a 402, 224/228 cam, AFR 205 Heads, 30# Injectors, LS2/Fast Intake.
Considering changing to a 416, 228/232 cam, Porting the AFR's, and 36# or 42# Injectors. Intake will remain the same.
Concerns:
1. don't want to loose any quick reving off the line or down low performance
2. still needs to be very behaved as it gets 400 miles of stop/go freeway and
city driving.
3. car is also used in open track racing....will I get down the straights faster?
4. any mpg hit ???
5. anything else I should consider
6. should I just leave the present combo alone
Also will it be drivable for breakin and awaiting dyno tune by just adjusting the cylinder size and injector flow rate and quick VE/MAF adjustment or will idle or other issues need immediate attention.
Thanks.......
