meester super sleuth
Yes he did. This OP didn't dyno with SVT cams/LIM/UIM...
Although I'll get my 3L setup on the dyno at SZ if not before. I have 3L heads with SVT cams/SVT LIM/SVT UIM.

He is incorrect. We told him when we built it that the car had 3L cams. He wanted 3L cams for more low end. I even stated it in his cam post a while back that he had 3L cams. It shouldn't be a surprise.

Who ever is putting down 210-220whp with a full 3L and gutted cats must have a really generous dyno or more mods than just gutted cats.
All of the full 3L's I built and had dynoed put down about 175-185whp at most. All of the ported 3L's I've built have put down 185-200whp. My Cougar in NA form put down 220whp and it's a ported 3L (all the svt bits) with CAI, headers and exhaust. Check out the dyno post at the top of the 3L section on NECO to get a better idea of how each setup performs. It's always the ported build that out performs the full 3L. My data is more valid than those posted by others because they have all been at the same dyno.

thought that you said you had SVT heads ... thats why it was a hybrid ...
that is Dom on FCO, and that was after it was tuned I believe ...

I'm not saying it isn't possible just that it seems to be rare.

I lied :laugh: It's the OTHER hybrid. And I could have sworn that we had this conversation before...

Then it's not a hybridthat's all there is to it.
You sure about that? The term HYBRID is thrown around loosely around here. Hybrid could be 3l block with either 3l or SVT heads and SVT cams, LIM, and UIM.
So it's either straight/full or hybrid. Hybrid being one of the two.

3L block + 2.5 heads = Hybrid
If you're using 3L heads most people don't refer to them as hybrids.
If you're using 3L heads most people don't refer to them as hybrids.
3L block + 3L heads with SVT intake = ported 3L

that it is. but it has been referred as a hybrid. or I will admit I am wrong... either way :laugh:
yes it was refered to as a hybrid a few months ago. recently it has been identified as a ported 3L ...

sounds good to me. I have referred to it as both.
Either way, that's what I have and what it dynoed at.

IDK after looking at the dyno, I expected a lot higher like 190s and up! Doing dynos in different places(company) make that much of a difference?
Blackcoog

Most definitely! Different dynos can be significantly different depending on the brand, model, or even the setup.
Are you trying to get me to break my foot off in your ass? Whats the point to flamebait like this? Lets take a second and hammer this through your thick head... Ported 3l'ers are not always done for power! Some people do them for ease of installation, or aesthetic purposes.
Every once in a while a noob will refer to it as a hybrid, before they are put down and re-educated!

I know it sounds like flame bait, but it's completely and utterly true.
If you want to use the SVT UIM you either have to shell out $325 for the adaptor LIM or spend 6-8 hours grinding. The full 3.0 isn't any more expensive or time consuming...a few vacuum lines, the EGR tube, TB bracket.
Aesthetic purposes? Cool. Just don't complain when the numbers are lower than expected.
