Banks Power Pack
Anyone put one of these on a 460 cause I'm having a hard time believing a 68 HP gain from these just wondering if any real world experience with them...Thanks for any info

I put Banks headers, and 3" Stinger exhaust on my completely rebuilt 1994 460. During the rebuild, I also installed a slightly hotter comp cam. Huge increase in power and towing. 68 hp, probably not. But, in its current set up, I can tow our 9,500# fifth wheel, over Snoqualmie pass, at 60 m.p.h., and only drop my E4OD to 3rd gear. I did install a magna flow generic catalytic converter, and completely removed my air injection system. I'm sure those helped my power and torque as well. Its a good system, very simple directions, just kind of pricey.

I'm an old man so the carb don't bother me it's what I grew up building. I'm not an EFI hater either thats why I'm arguing with myself. Plus I know I could never get the money the carb engine is worth if I sold it so i also have that dilemma. Thanks for your info though really helps to know the Banks stuff does work
