Mine is streetable. I have AC, the heater works and a simple stereo system with the Bose removed. A tad noisy for the wife but still fun to drive.
It only takes cubic dollars. Here is an idea. Go borrow the money. When it comes due, borrow more to pay it off and kick the can down the road. The govt does that so why not you?
That might work, except they( the government) would be the ones that catch me and put me in jail...WW
I would have thought that we'd be pretty close though which was why I thought you should be making more and needing bigger injectors.
Some of that also depends on the offsets in the tune. On a 383 a 24 can be capable of keeping the DC under control @wot (using 43psi).......however once above that 396, 402, 406, etc. thats where it all changes real fast. Those builds will need a minimum of 36 and up.
The typical on-line calculators are quite conservative (even when using a bsfc of .5, and 43. psi) when compared to real world tuning/in the car.
I live in bend oregon NO ONE any where around here has a dyno. closest place is portland/vancouver area. If anyone knows of someone reliable in that area i would be grateful for the info.
Tom Wong is the guy for you then. He has a shop in Portland, has a dyno, and is a terrific C4 tuner. His username is tjwong I think
