hi guys there are some numbersnow-- i want to thank chris/from the board.. dierctorQL--something like that anyway.. he got a hold of Larry from Sound Performance.. We were able to get the car over there tonight.. Larry was cool and Max from there helped too..they were both very helpfull..
were able to make some runs and get some numbers..
The car did very well-AND we were able to drive it home..
we ran the car with 5-6 psi and then at 7-8 psi..
at 5-6 it did around 325 at the wheels..
at 7-8 it did around 370 at the wheels..
it was running on the lean side and i did hear detonation .. we tried turning up the fuel press and for the higher psi we added toluene and xylene to the gas in an effort to get rid of the detonation..
in any case it did well.. i think originally they dyno at around 170 so seeing such a jump is good..more than i expected anyway..
i am not sure what the horsepower is at the motor before the trans--but il try and do some figuring tonight..
we also did a quarter mile run on the dyno-- it was kinda difficult being an automatic, but we tried anyway.. the 5-6 psi run was like 13.6 at 107 mph.. the second run at 7-8 psi was slower( prob because of trying to start on the dyno) but the mph went to around 112 mph..--thats pretty good..
now i dont know how these number relate to a real track--but that will have to wait till spring or wheni get a g- tech or something..
anyway, it was a good night..
there are still some things i want to do to the car, and i got some ideas from max at sound performace.. but i always like trying stuff anyway.--it seems like i always am thinking of trying something..
anyway, i know bob got online so im sure he is posting whatever he can-- and he did get vid also..
anyway, talk to you guys later..

I don't know If Ryan is correct, but man does that sound nice!!
Chris is thinking the motor is making around 440HP at the flywheel.
