No two dynos are alike..the percentages are small. Also you must take into consideration the environment the engine is seeing.

PRE-Z06

that would rule out this being a car that is down on power as some seem to think, because they're comparing other dynos.

Snorman

Exactly.
But it will become a moot point soon. Many of us are starting to get our cars, they will be at the track, on the dyno and on the scales. It will put all the guessing to rest.

Just wait till we get the first mustang dyno pull video...
Oh the drama.

Snorman

lol...exactly.
People will be comparing their STD corrected Dynojet numbers to the C7.

I'm just waiting for the first post of a good run at MIR, then people will be hailing it as the second coming.

Snorman

Will it still count if it's run in -1000'-2000' DA with track prep that pulls your shoes off at the tree like when C6 Z06 and ZR1 records are set?

Of course it will.

I was just pointing out how people like making a big deal about all the different dyno numbers we get (granted you can fudge them) saying that it's just a tuning tool, but I think its funny at certain tracks where you can run, I'll call them "magical" numbers and while yes, it honestly runs that number there, take them to any other track beside those few and the numbers will be vastly different. Now if you've always run your cars there then its a great comparison (tool, not unlike a dyno) but anyone else who sees a good number from those few tracks need to know that they can't just run out to their local track and crack off those times no matter how good a driver they are. That being said I am really looking forward to seeing times the C7 puts down in comparison to other cars (preferably that day) that have run/are running there.

Are u the same snowman on turbobuick?

I believe the guys that run @ MIR if this is one of the tracks you are speaking of know this track is a fast track most of the time. This being said, why not go to a track to better your PB or try to hit that number ?

tail_lights

Never said I didn't believe them Why wouldn't I go to another dyno as well to get a better number? The shop I use has nicknames like heartbreaker and such because it dynos so low.

Oh, and this.....






With that said (posted?) I'll stop derailing and cluttering up the first independent dyno test of the C7. I'm sure we'll have plenty more in the next few days/weeks!

Late Model Racecraft

This is correct.

It was about 90* out when we dyno'd it and Fairly humid.

Late Model Racecraft

Be checking back in the near future for some stronger results with our different packages we are coming out with. This C7 is a great starting point!

Rkreigh

only "dyno" I care about is seeing the trap speeds

this will happen VERY soon. let me know if someone is going out.

be cool to see folks struggling to plant the torq

hey ranger, you ready???

LMR Proprietary CNC program testing up next!

VIN666

Ported stock heads I take it?
Canīt wait to see numbers

tail_lights

I'm looking forward to seeing them run at my local track

Only local one so far 114.88

Late Model Racecraft

Yes, LMR proprietary CNC program on factory castings.
