411/373

232/240 .618 .624 114
Patriot Stage II
Patriot Gold springs
OBX Headers

On the dyno the engine isn't getting enough air above 4000 rpms.

Looking for a Fast 90-102. Have the LS2 throttle body now

Seems a little low. For heads and cam i would think you would see around 420-430hp and at least right over 400ft/lbs. Maybe that air starvation is really bad. Do you have a graph also we could see?

It was on a dyno jet, and I do have a graph I can post shortly. I thought the dyno numbers were a little low, but yes the air starvation is ridiculous. Tuner said it was like 88 ka or something, not sure what that meant but basically said with a fast 90 I should see an easy 30-40 if not more. I'm suffocating my engine, and I want to let my baby breathe lol

Yeah that 88ka should be closer to 100. It is definitely being starved. I was experiencing that with my cam-only car and only made in the 390's (i dont remember the exact number). I've also been told my dyno was known for reading real low...each one is setup/calibrated differently.

The intake and 78mm TB are your restriction now. The heads will really allow her to breathe once that is addressed.

Yea, she'll be able to breathe A LOT better with the FAST. I want to swap the clutch, and the FAST before I dyno her again. I'm hoping for 445-455 range when those two are done

No I didn't...wouldn't know where to begin with doing that. I had my tuner spec me the cam....which is his personal custom cam.....and he said the Patriot Stage 2's would compliment it nicely for a decent price.

Just because you have heads doesnt mean you cant run a bigger duration cam. You just had a baby cam speced for your setup.

Well there is something a little wierd with numbers like those. We all know he should have easily broke over the 410 mark with his setup

Reading comprehension fail!

First thing in this thread lol

411/373



You can only make power if you can get the air in and out of the motor. Like putting a turbo on an ls1 with a 50mm throttle body, of course it wont make the power it could. The LS6 intake is his restriction at this point.
