Default found 3 more gears and 90 more wrhp

ok for the past week and a half i have been working swapping out my gas guzzling turbo 350 and replacing it with a t56. not that complicated because the car was originally a standard but wasn't easy because i attempted the swap myself with no experience, but i did have some very skilled friends do the hard parts. well went and had it dyno tuned for it to recognize the 6 sp. had an issue with the first pull only doing 276 wrhp. hooked up the fuel pressure gauge and after 3k rpm it dropped to 28 psi. started cheap and was going to work out from there. swapped the fuel filter and hit the nail on the head. did a best of 368 wrph.

Bud why are you gonna post stuff up here if you are not wanting to give all the info about the car and if you are not wanting us to give you our opinion? Why even bother coming on here and writing if not?? But it just doesn't make any sense if you post up all of this stuff and then not want to tell us about the car...

sorry didn't know much about the car. like i said i just bought it. i have been trolling the site trying to learn as much as i can. the only thing i have done to it myself was put the t56 in and put some y2k rims on it. looking to get some nice heads for it and other minor things to pass up the 400 mark.
