:eek: :cool: :cheers:

 

Here are Bill's dyno runs. These are the first and only two dyno runs made on Bill's car, with no tuning done yet, and only a couple miles on the motor. The ignition timing was only 24 degrees. We could get more power by bumping the timing up to 28-30 degrees, but the 24 degrees will work better for nitrous.



Look at that HP curve! +500 rwhp from 5600 rpm up to 6800 rpm!

Yessiree! That'll do JUST FINE. My only question, having spent some (vacation) time in Hawaii on several different islands...where are you going to get to run out that bad boy? :D

Snowman :seeya

Congrats on the numbers! I know 500rwhp was what u were looking for. Cant wait till the beat gets back on the island.....

 

Yes, I saw them stab it last Wednesday while I was visiting. Meant to tell you and forgot. I'll be at MTI this Wed for TPIS installation. I'll check out your ride and report back.

 

You're certainly going to have one sweet ride once it's done. I'm glad some GOOD is coming out of this situation. Very impressive baseline numbers. You're nuts putting NOS on that! I hope you like to go sideways! Just ask Bill C about that :D

Thanks for keeping us posted. Oh, when does the finish get re-done? Speedway White all around right?

 

Dyno #s look great!! How are the numbers through cats and mufflers on pump gas? We were only able to run about 21 degrees of degrees of timing on our CA 91 octane gas.

You will have great fun with that monster!

 

Bill that thing sounds crazy! Can't wait to see that thing for real!

 

Whew!! I just got up. I did not get home until about 3:30 :eek: :eek:

GraveDigger, I appreciate that. Thanks!! :cheers:

Rich, U DA MAN!! Thanks!! :cheers:

Mike, I could not get it to work for me :crazy: But I am not the sharpest tack in the box. :D Thanks!! :cheers:

Sir Sel, Thanks!! :cheers:

oceanaire, Thanks!! :cheers:

Ripped427, This thing has been dragging along hasn't it. :D Thanks!! :cheers:

rpoz06, I think that Caravaggio stuff will work just fine. :D Thanks!! :cheers:

Mako, I got your message and will try to get you the scoop. Dyno chart is already up, (thanks nineball), as far as the Z8 goes ... :D :D I have added the Dinan software and new airfilters. I will try to dyno it soon, should be 350 to 360 at the wheels. :D Thanks!! :cheers:

CHRIS NJ C5, Just a little :D :D Thanks!! :cheers:

Phantom, Will Do! Thanks!! :cheers:

Corvette4ever, We went with a slightly more agressive cam. Not quite as strong as SW has but not as tame as the "standard" MTI 422. I forget what they called it ... Thanks!! :cheers:

Tiger Shark, Turn the speakers up :D :D :D Thanks!! :cheers:

Nasty, Now I need some of those awsome flames!! :D Thanks!! :cheers:

EuG, Thanks!! :cheers:

Cmil, Thanks!! :cheers:

jbs, How is your foot?? Thanks!! :cheers:

Austrianvette, I plan to do a fancy web site with plenty of vids :D :D Thanks!! :cheers:

dcronkhite, Almost finished! MTI has treated me veeery well. I have nothing but praise for their professionalism through this whole thing. But their props will be officially given later :D Thanks!! :cheers:

02Z06VETTE, ... long story :lol: :lol: ... I finaly ended up with MTI installing a 422cid stroker motor. 100 shot of nitrous is still cooking. Thanks!! :cheers:

SW, I can not thank you enough. You helped me make the right decision and for that I am grateful. You have the original Z07 and that sucker started a revolution for more power on this forum!! :D :D I will get with you next week to coordinate, my car, your skill, a drag strip and many beers afterwards!! :D :D Thanks!! :cheers:

BillyY2k, You said it! Thanks!! :cheers:

NineBall, You have been a big help bro. I appreciate it. Uhhh more pics and vids please :D :D Thanks!! :cheers:

JW, Thanks!! :cheers:

Snowman, Hell, I have not even thought about that :lol: :lol:. I think I may just run up and down my street at WOT, drive my neighbors out and property values down. Then I'll buy the cheap land and build a big enough garage to have as many cool toys as you and SW have. :lol: :lol: :lol: Thanks!! :cheers:

2TYTE, Whats up TD. :lol: I guess between us we have the Domestic and Import world well represented!! :D :D BTW how did you do last night? Thanks!! :cheers:

Steve, Thanks!! :cheers:

JD, Hell I need the juice just to keep up with 2TYTE on a trip to the mall! :lol: The paint has been done, car tubbed, interior done engine installed, now all we need is a little break in and the new wheels. Thanks!! :cheers:

Mako, That is one good thing about Hawaii. No Emissions!! I wonder how this sucker would sound with that new Borla ... :eek: Thanks!! :cheers:

Dave, You and me both bruddah!! :D Thanks!! :cheers:

 

Man that's sweet :D 500+ Na rwhp is just amazing. Good luck with the tunning process, maybe they can squeeze out more out of that monster :yesnod:

 

Congrats Bill!

I got to hear it in person yesterday....OMG it sounds sooooo good!

:cheers:

 

Those are some great numbers, I like the video of the dyno pull, sounds mean. I wish you the best of luck when you do get her home :)

Bill, I don't know you personally, but I'm truly happy for you after all the BS you had gone through--you deserved to have your expectations exceeded!!!:cheers:

George

 

Great numbers :)

 

Wow! MTI just keeps building motors better and better! Is that with the R1 cam?

No Mercy, you're going to be blown away when you take that beast for a drive!

 

Bill - great numbers. I missed hearing it by a day. I was there taking pics of your wheels Friday for the guy buying them. I took pics of your back window, but the pics didn't show anything. The window is all too dark to photograph - but it looks great.

Still hoping to see you in Houston.

 

Wow. Your car is absolutely incredible. You had better get some of the finest surgeons money can buy because your body is going to see some serious forces from WOT runs and bringing that beast to a stop with those Dilusi brakes. I hope that you don't develop any internal bleeding. :eek: :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

Congrats Bill! You'll be very happy with your new motor, I've got the same one in my car.

Question : did you guys do any runs with closed exhaust to see how bad the cats and/or exhaust hurts you? 500/500 is one hell of a motor! Watch out Hawaii!!!

 

No Mercy:

Congrats on a very happy ending for you and enjoy that horsepower/torque monster and dream car of YOURS! :smash:

Be safe and have fun in the Hawaii sun! You lucky dog you!

Nitrovette

 

Great #'s Bill. Talk to you again soon. I never did get those e-mail that you were gonna send. Waassuupp? :confused:
