Sorry Doug…It was too long ago and I don’t recall.

Hello

Borla – the exhaust and induction family.  The 48mm “Weber” set up looks pretty real.

Did you deal with the Oxnard or Tennessee location for your induction set up?

Great sounding job

Congrats

Doug

Hi Mark,

 

This would be about 210RWHP. 10.5:1 pistons too. Perfectly optimised ignition timing makes as much of a difference as everything else does, I reckon.

Nice work Peter!

Curious as to the HP numbers, as I recall when I dyno’d my 85 308 the rear wheel HP came out to approximately 195.  Is there a difference in measurement, or did the euro cams and throttle bodies add 80hp to the engine?

Just rebuilt my ’76 308GTB engine. Did all the usual things that one does with rebuilds these days, plus installed Euro cams.

 

I also have 8 throttle bodies and injection. Looks stock. Sounds stock (very important) but makes the car run great.

 

270hp @ 6750rpm

312nm @ 3500rpm

 

Pretty happy with that result.
