Super victor or not

Would a super victor make more power then a victor jr? My car makes peak power at 7100 rpm and i shift at 7500 rpm. Would i gain anything or would it hurt it?
 
I have a 331 ford. It has 13.5 to 1 comp. victor jr heads and intake. The car has gone 11.15 at 122 i just would like to know if its worth the money to make the change?
 
i would think so..

Buddy just did the same swap.. 411w 10.8 to one vic junior heads.. and hes only shifting at 6800.
It went 11.3 best on motor and 10.5 on a 125hit previous with a vic junior on it.. he put the super vic on and it went 11.1 on motor and 10.02 on the same hit.. similar conditions..
 
Trial and error never hurts anything(but the wallet):D

My thought is that it will boost torque in the midrange more than anything else in the powerband and that leads to quicker ET's.. Maybe do some port matching and smooth the entry area to see if that lends a hand also. Goodluck!
 
they are big so you have to have a good motor to support it, it will hurt low end but help at high rpms where that lil motor needs to run good... i had one on my car and it went 10.40@132 on motor setup for nitrous, cam, gear, converter and stuff like that... they are so big you dont need to port em, unless you plan on spinning it to the moon but will support whatever you need...
 
Here is my current combination using a Super Victor 8.2:

2007
N/A 347, AFR 205's, Super Victor intake, 780 Pro Systems Carb, .700" lift Aggressive Custom Solid Roller, 14:1 Compression, Moroso Vac Pump, Face-Plated TKO600, 4.88 gears, 3005 lb race weight w/ driver. Will likely launch at 7000 - 7200 RPM and shift at 7500-7600 RPM. Should go VERY low 10's to high 9's N/A.

2006
Last year everything but the cam and compression was the same. The cam was very mild and the compression was 13 to 1. It ran a best of 10.60 @ 127.5. The best 60' was a 1.41 and the best MPH was 128.8. 6600 RPM launches and 7300 RPM shifts.

2005
I also ran the super victor on the car the year before that. It had 10.4 to 1 compression, the same mild cam, and it went 10.90 @ 123.6. 6600 RPM launches and 7200 RPM shifts.

The problem with both of our engines based on what you have described is the operating range. It makes the Victor Jr too small and the Super Victor a tick on the big side. I looked into having a Victor Jr done up to flow what was needed for my application and it was going to cost me around $1000 for the intake. In fact the company that was going to do the port work suggested the Super Victor for the following reasons: 1. It flows real close to what I needed out of the box 2. The runner balance is better than a Victor Jr. 3. And the bottom line is, its a lot cheaper when you look at the necessary port work to get a Victor Jr to keep up.

Also, a friend of mine had:
N/A 306, Iron TFS High ports, Super Victor intake, 780 Pro Systems Carb, .650" lift Custom Solid Roller, 13.5:1 Compression, Moroso Vac Pump, C4, 4.56 gears, 2850 lb race weight w/ driver. launched at 4500 - 4700 RPM and shifted at 7500-7600 RPM. The car ran 10.30's @ 132 MPH

Hopefully these should be good enough examples that for what you are doing, a Super Victor will work great. Good luck to you.
