What Scalar to use for cylinder volume?

Post by cstaples »

Just put a 383 in a 92 Caprice with 16136965 ECM running $62 mask and was wondering how you adjusted the cylinder volume for a 383.

Thanks

OK I see that the Base Pulse Constant is where I need to change for engine size and injector flow.

Is there a way to know what the BPC should be with the 383 and stock injectors?

take original engine size, divide with new engine size.

ex:

383/350 = 1.094

multiply the BPC by that and it will get you more or less there.
