Post your dyno numbers and mods thread!
Hey everyone, if this thread already exists somewhere feel free to direct me to it. I did some searching and didn't find one that was specific to the C3.
With that said, post up your C3 Corvette's dyno numbers! Let's try to keep the information accurate by following this format:
Horsepower/Torque @ RPM:
Engine specs: (displacement, heads, intake, cam, power adders, etc...)
Transmission: (Th400, T-10, T-56, 700r4, etc...)
Type of Dyno: (Dynojet, mustang, etc...)
Elevation: (Density altitude)
Any other relevant info:
Please keep this to DYNO PROVEN NUMBERS ONLY! No "well my combo is about the same as my buddies who made 9,000 hp". This is to give people a fairly accurate idea of what different combinations will make, so let's not muddy the waters with estimates please.
Ready....GO

350 to the tire from a basic 383 is respectable, especially though the IRS on the C3.
