what is a good setup on my 350 that i got in my 86 chevy like what intake stuff like that do i need for fast?

Answer 1

Try a Edelbrock Performer, with a 600 CFM Edelbrock carburetor, along with an RV2 cam. You should get great performance, and decent fuel economy out of it, and have a "sneaker" engine that sounds nearly stock, but really comes on at lower RPMs and kicks booty on the street. Anything bigger then a 600 CFM and you might as well stand over the intake and dump gallons of gas into it. Some people think bigger is better, but if you want it to run well and get the best performance out of it, stay with the best smallest size carb for whatever you want it to do. That, along with headers and a K&N filter should give you all the speed you need for the street.
If you want anything more radical, then you will have to shop around and see what RPMs you want your cam coming in at, along with everything else. It can get really complicated, so you'll need to do a lot of research.
CFM means cubic feet per minute of fuel/air mixture.

theres nothing cheap u can do for serious fast. headers and dual exaust is the single best thing u can do to boost power without getting into the motor ... an intake and carb wont make a huge difference and a big cam isnt any good for the street, but if you put a good set of heads on the motor and get compression to about 10:1 .. put a decent medium-lift cam in it from isky or crane, then the intake and carb will actually start doing somthing ... then you will want to get a better rear gear probably and do somthing about traction ..then at that point stuff will break so u got to strengthen everything from the bottom end of ur motor to the tranny to the rearend ... a seriously fast car is a complete package ... i would either just throw a good set of headers and exaust on it and forget it ... or go all out and build a motor.... just throwing bolt-ons like an intake or a carb, or a cam isnt going to get u seriously fast.
...the cfm of a carb has absolutely nothing to do with mileage either and actully its harder to get a big cfm carb to run rich than a smaller cfm carb ... cfm is air ..air=lean ... however a big cfm carb can kill throttle response on the street and is better suited to wide open throttle on the strip.

Answer 3

what carb do you have on it what manafold .edelbrock to me is one of the best.how far is it bored out to?what are the intake valves?all has to be looked at.it's fun to build it up .go for it.
