DYNO TIME/TUNING. getting there but small problem to fix....
well i'm getting there but thought i would share what i have going on so far. i did a 383 LT1, AFR 210cc heads and all the good stuff to build a blower motor. running a t-trim voretch ( no intercooler but i do plan on running my intercooler in the blue bottle ). having the MC Racing here in KC doing the tuning. so far the car made 460-ish to the rear wheels but falling over at just 4500 rpm. i think i'm floating the valves right @ 5000-ish. once i know more i will get more posted.

i'm floating valves, i'm using a TPIS zz9x cmashaft with 1.6 rockers. spring pressure is @ 120 which is not enough. i have a big show next weekend in KC so right after the show it's time to change springs and revisit the dyno.... i'm getting there....... the AFR spring was way too much so we changed them and well s#@! happens.

There is another guy in JoCo named Tim Reed that specializes in Corvettes and forced inductions application. I met him street racing in KC a number of years ago and again at the PRI show in Orlando this past year. The guys at MC at great but if you ever need someone to give you a second oppinion....
