I'm probably gonna be swapping a v8 into the 7



don't bitch me out, it won't do you any good



what I need are the air flow numbers, like cfm of intake and exhaust



it will more than likely have a 383 stroker build with about a .500 to .550 lift cam, aftermarket pistons and rings, and lots more.

I dont understand your question?



are you asking what size carb to put on it or what size injectors?

it would depend on the compression of the engine

which would be determined by the pistons and the heads

then you would need to select the proper cam shaft that puts the

power in the range you would need it. You would also have the

deal with tunning the car afterwords, not sure if your thinking

of going carb or not, but a standalone fuel injection system

will run about $1000 and im not sure how adjustable one like

that would be



if you tried to use a stock efi set up then you would still need to

reprogram the ecu to work with the turbo.

Thats what I was thinking also. I like the Demon Carb's Or edelbrock. I've always had great luck with them on engines that I've worked on in the past.
