Neo-Retro 327 - Modern V-8 Power with 327 Looks
Before moving on, we decided to retest the engine with a proven induction combo. The ’64 iron intake certainly wasn’t helping the engine’s output very much, and we thought it might benefit from a few more cfm as well. We swapped an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake and a Demon Carburetion 750-cfm mechanical-secondary carb on and ran it again. This time we saw a best of 334 hp at 5,500 rpm, and 363 lb-ft of torque, now occurring at 4,300 rpm. This induction combo would look way out of place on a traditional car, but we wanted to know what we were giving up for appearances.
