Go by HP.

By the way, trucks and boats get less mileage because they a a)heavier b)under constant load c) both.

HP is a measurement of keeping torque effective at higher rpm. Peak torque comes in at a particular rpm and peak horsepower usually higher in rpm. The broader the range of the engine the ...

Sorry I can't help with the vacuum situation, although if you were to look at some of the Datsun Z car forums, say Hybrid Z, I daresay that some advice on the size of a "reservoir" for vacuum could be ascertained. A lot of Z car owners like putting on triple dual throat carbs (webers, dellortos ...

Since I am a dummy, I'll ask a question here if I may.

Are you talking about doing away with Optical/Hall sensor input entirely?

The wording and my novice perspective have me confused.....

For those of us with turbos and big injectors, this kind of information is very helpful to share - the brand/type/impedance can play a big part in how quickly the injector can cycle and use the resolution of MSII.

It is my understanding that the low impedence injectors do have quicker open/close times, and that may wind up helping you.

I know of one person running 72 lb/hr injectors on a 3 liter 6 banger and his idle is fine, bu thtey are low impedance and he is running MAF on a Nissan 300ZX computer.

Sorry I can't help you with the adapter plate/manifold question, but if in fact the p[lates do work, I would go with a single plane manaifold.

And don't be surprised if you have a VERY streetable 450 HP.

Are you going to run the stock iron heads? If so, go with the open chamber ones ...
