Default LT4 - Dyno

Just got back from the dyno today with the LT4. This car is absolutely stock and has 56,500 miles on it. There is a K&N filter, but that is it.

I am pretty happy with 299.3hp and 305.8 Torque.

To see the entire graph visit my Yellow web site in sig.
The torque line is pretty awesome. It hits high early and sustains it throughout most of the RPM range.

Very nice!! Correct for 14% drivetrain loss with the ZF6 and you get 348/355 :D :D

Great HP numbers! I did my '90 today and only got 225RWHP, but the torque was great! 314lbs at the wheels! This is through an auto, too! I was happy with those numbers.....

Jeff, You were absolutely right. It was the hash marks you put on that gave me that extra 10hp. :D
