New 512 build planning

[Spyder]

Yep, I'm pretty sure I'll get the cooling dialed in. Hoods back on now, once i get it adjusted and lined up just right I'll do another test drive for cooling and airflow but I'm pretty happy with it now.

First time I've heard the exhaust myself.

Hoods on and almost perfectly aligned, good enough until the T/A one gets here. Heats up a little faster at idle in park, will start tinkering with airflow next but I'm working out of town the next couple weeks so not much time. Driving with hood on was a steady 185 though so I should be able to dial it in.

Yes, the hood will help mostly with driving/cruising. That whole air flow thing!

I have a mainly street 540 Hemi but it gets slung to high 6,000RPM every time it is out. It also may sit for a few weeks at a time due to my schedule. It has a hi volume pump and stock Hemi pan. Given those parameters, I have an Accusump. That way, it has oil pressure BEFORE I even hit the key; NO dry starts. And if the engine needs more oil than the pan holds, there are 3 quarts just waiting their turn in the reservoir. I have ran this set-up on wedges for many years and have had it on this engine for 7 years now.
