Good numbers! Do you still have the stock gears? I just got 3.90's and my car has a whole new personality :eek: once it gets to second gear now?

Looks like the power starts to fall off at ~6500? I'd lower my shift point down to the peak...
Nice numbers!

Actually I would take that data and enter it into Bowling's shift point calculator. You will be surprised at where it tells you to shift. They tell you to shift after peak horsepower to maximize the useable power under the curve vs the gear ratios.

Re: Dyno Numbers from Tuning Session (Dave00C5)
I have B&B shorty's on the car and am thinking of going with the LG longtubes to try and boost the torque a bit. Any of you familar with shorty's versus longtube torque benefits?
