So after a summer of dialing in tune, how is the performance? Has she been on the dyno for a HP check or have you done any timed 0-60 and/or 1/4 mile runs to estimate the horsepower?
Also, I'm intrigued by your finding that you needed more intake. I'd read from several sources that the V6 dual TBI can flow about 490 cfm. I don't know what the SD heads will flow, but if it is in the 300 cfm range, on the surface it would seem like the the 490cfm flow would be more than capable of feeding anything the heads could handle. Any idea what accounts for your finding? I'm now wondering if I should be on the look out for the big 454 TBI, as it will flow over 600 cfm to put in my SD4.[This message has been edited by edfiero (edited 11-26-2018).]

I finally finished catching up with this thread. Absolutely unbelievable amount of work you put into this, standing ovation! Thank you for sharing with us.
I have an SD4 engine that’s been sitting in my shop for a long time. I wanted to build a super duty Indy but after reading everything in here I think I will pass! I don’t think I have the patience.

Find an Edlebrock 2-bbl intake manifold and run a 2-bbl carburetor. Had I done that at the beginning, most likely I'd still have that setup on the engine. The 4-bbl was just unworkable... could not eliminate "bog" when you punched it.[This message has been edited by fierosound (edited 11-01-2019).]

Just read through your whole thread and, wow! Great job on the restoration! Looks fantastic!
When I got to the part where you were having carb issues kept thinking "Why doesn't he just go efi?" I've done about 5 Megasquirt installs and this is a perfect use for one. Looks like you have it pretty well figured out using GM stuff so great job there! Again, fantastic build!

Thank you...
A lot of it is "if only I knew THEN what I know NOW..."
And... the tiny Bosch EV14 injectors that make the MPFI I built possible didn't exist before fall of 2012.[This message has been edited by fierosound (edited 06-08-2022).]

I don't know if anyone he collects rare Fiero Super Duty Literature, this came from a Pontiac service managers estate sale, very interesting stuff. Plus look at my other auctions I have listed some other Indy pace car stuff. https://www.ebay.com/itm/84...9:g:JW8AAOSwZehgBMJe
