Make mine lemon merinque, please! V = r x r x 3.14159 x S
Times the number of cylinders give the engine displacement. For an 8 cylinder engine the total displacement is 8 x V.

stating 385 Rhp, and 11.58 1/4 mile. Dont know about fastest in US but could have believe.
I have the same setup except Heads, 58mm TB and dual exhaust.
If i got 325 Rhp and 400Rwt and ran 12.50 1/4 mile i would be damned happy.

My 350 ran a 12.2, My S/R is Ported and my AFR heads a the race version. 100% CNC. I have more to gain with skinnies and pulling the sway bar but I don't have a cage.

Sami, I made that with my 213 LPE flat tappet cam I just pulled out, crap, which reminds me, I need to sell that thing.
Anyway, I made (on the same dyno as Corvette0096, Tom Wong's)
326rwhp/400rwtq with LPE213 flat tappet 224/234 .496/.520 (w/1.6's)
You should be able to make more than that!
I just finished the swap to the LPE 219 and have nearly the same set-up as Corvette0096, (ported SR, ported Dart Pro1 heads), I sure as hell hope I make his numbers!
Rich (Corvette0096), what static compression are you running?

Is that a forgiving dyno? Rich made 385rwhp/423rwtq which is more then I have seen anyone make. I think with 20% drivetrain loss, thats around 480chp/530tq. And I heard Mustang dyno's were on the low end compared to a Dynojet. Cant see him making over 400rwhp on a Dynojet or is that possible? I am lost!

I don't think I'll be able to use that trick this summer.

Your trick is "tom w". Do you make him wait on the corner this late at night. Scary out there, All dark and stuff!
He sounds like a good tuner.
