Default Dyno numbers in....

Preliminary numbers are in... Need to break the clutch in some more as it was slipping in a couple of the pulls.. The lower numbers are from my previous motor...(H/C/I 347).. there is more to be had... I'll enjoy this for now...



I am very pleased with the TQ....

Good numbers. Those torque curves look great even on your old setup. Im sure that car is a blast to drive.

Great numbers, especially the torque! Have fun getting traction on the street! Get that beast to the track and make some ten second passes, your trap speeds will be a better indicator of the HP than any dyno run.

Screw the strip - I want to see him at the Texas Mile, or a 1/2 mile roll race event!

That set up makes great torque Matt! I'm sure there is still more left with a little tweaking.

JP and I are going to hit a 1/4 mi track in a couple of months just to see what she does... 2nd,3rd gear are useless... Even got sideways a little in 4th today...

Stout numbers, tell JP to let me know when y'all go and hopefully I can make it out!

Nice numbers especially the torque. What kind of dyno was it? Oh and based upon your other thread with the video I bought a Corsa Indy Pace Car catback. Love it. Should have done that one a LONG time ago.

What rear tires you running? You definitely shouldnt be losing traction in 4th unless youre driving in very cold weather.
