    funny shifting on the 727

    what would cause the tranny to shift at 4500 wot most of the time and won't downshift at a higher rpm but the weird part is every once and a while it would upshift at more of a normal 5200 rpms. tranny was rebuilt and the line pressure was turned up a little. kickdown is adjusted all the way.

    ported heads vs HP gain

    if you have a stock engine with decent flowing heads from the factory and then take the stock heads and mildly port them. then put them on the same stock engine will there be a HP gain and or will the peak TQ and HP move to a higher rpm.

    head flow numbers.

    not sure why the flow went bad after .300 lift. the stock intake valve was 1.87 new one 1.94. want to get another 10 cfm after .300 lift. with a stock intake valve on stock heads they make 190 cfm at .500 lift.

    what gas is better

    what would be better and more power, non ethanol 90 with 30* total timing or ethanol 93 with 33* total. any more timing than 30 or 33 will cause pinging.

    combustion chamber question

    if you have a tight quench pistons up high with a good combustion chamber like close chamber 915 heads would you need more fuel [jetting] or less to make power. am thinking it burns more efficient so it would need and handle more fuel ?
