Finally got to the dyno..and made it home in one peice.. Its been a long process..mainly due to my lack of inerest and setbacks alon the way but I made it to the dyno again. I'm ready to hit the track now. Changes are a fresh short block, slightly different cam, and converted to single plane intake. Final numbers were 493/411. Its about s 24 hp pickup and 20 ft lbs since the 10.3 runs. I'm also alittle ligher 
. Hopefully the car will pick up some. There will still be some tuning to be done at the track so who knows where the car will end up. I'm still looking at an e85 upgrade if I can find a steady supply. Here is the graph. I will be shifting at 7500-7700 ish so the shift extensions will put me right back in the meat of my power curve.

Making it home from the dyno in one piece is always a good feeling.
I am always paranoid that the car is going to jump off the rollers and in my case if it did, it would crash throught the back shop wall, take out the big screen, plummit from a 50 foot cliff and into the Little Sandy River and sink into oblivian.
Sweet numbers BTW and love how it revs to 7.5K RPM. Wish I could hear that.

something must have been wrong with the scaling when we printed it. dunno how that happened. We were joggin all the displays around to look at different things, wheel speed, a/f, compairing torque only, hp only etc. its weird because all day you would see it on the big screen by the dyno right at the 500 mark...it is kinda funny tho..lol. Guess I will go 9s on 442 hp if thats what you guys wanna beleive..
AC, its a stock crank, eagle rods, ross pistons. Two bolt main. Nothing special here.I will shift at 75 most of the time...if I need alittle more I will take it out more. Trans is a pro shifted t-56 and cryo treated. Its been like this for a while and has handled many 6000+ launches. Its def. screaming at 7500..did make me nervous on the dyno..lol. I shut it down at 7300 on most pulls. We mostly tuned by my wideband on my dfi setup. It gave a way better break down per rpm. We just had the probe in to compair the readings between the two then never looked at the dyno probe again.
This was also a gain over a very loose motor that made a couple hundred passes down the strip. It still had no leakdown tho but we freshened it up so its a tight bottom end again. This thing has maybe 5 miles on it and all were strapped to the dyno. Should be some hp on break in. Also a few "little" things that we are gonna be doing to help it on the track..who cares about dyno numbers.
