Transmission Ratio Four = 0.70 to 1
Horsepower = 115 at 2000 RPM

Horsepower = 225 at 3500 RPM
Horsepower = 255 at 4000 RPM
Horsepower = 290 at 4500 RPM
Horsepower = 325 at 5000 RPM
Horsepower = 365 at 6000 RPM
Horsepower = 365 at 6500 RPM
Computation Results:
Using the Criterion for Maintaining the Same Horsepower Before and After Shift:
Finding Best Shift Placement Points For Ratio 3.06 to 1.63: Error: Search outside range - need more RPM range in HP table! Finding Best Shift Placement Points For Ratio 1.63 to 1.00: Error: Search outside range - need more RPM range in HP table! Finding Best Shift Placement Points For Ratio 1.00 to 0.70: Error: Search outside range - need more RPM range in HP table!

Maximumizing the Area Under the Horsepower Curve:
Finding Best Shift Placement Points For Ratio 3.06 to 1.63:

Found optimum shift RPM at 6495, which achieves maximum area under horsepower curve, and lowers the RPM to 3460 after shift
Finding Best Shift Placement Points For Ratio 1.63 to 1.00:

Found optimum shift RPM at 6496, which achieves maximum area under horsepower curve, and lowers the RPM to 3985 after shift
Finding Best Shift Placement Points For Ratio 1.00 to 0.70:

Found optimum shift RPM at 6493, which achieves maximum area under horsepower curve, and lowers the RPM to 4545 after shift
So it looks like you need to be shifting at 6500-6600, which is where you are. The reason for the error is probably due to the fact that the graph never drops so the calculator doesn't know when and how fast the power is dropping off after 6500. I found an engine dyno of a 228r cam and it kept making power to 6700-6800, though by your torque I doubt your will hold off that long. Either way I'd leave the shift points at 6600.

That still doesn't explain the times though.

i wouldnt worry to much man like was previously stated on page one id say its your 60's that are hurting you.my first time at the track i ran 12.8 and i was trapping consistent 115 the whole night its just a matter of how you come off the line practice makes perfect

Hey Tiffany.

After the tropical mess here, our humidity was in the 90s-% all day long and 90deg during your pull and correction is SAE.

To help shed some light on things in this thread:

The fact that the car ran the same MPH at the track as before the cam swap can also be seen in the dyno graph. What I mean is, the car was put on the dyno saturday and pulled and made the 334. The logs showed about 70% throttle. When checked, the TB (with pedal on the floor) still had about a solid inch to go. The cable was adjusted (as it was when previously tuned) and the next pull (no other change) the car made the 364. This is a stalled auto in miserable weather conditions. The car was previously tuned at a time when the humidity hardware in the dynojet stack was dead, so the tune was solid, but the numbers were bad. AFR can't be seen in those pics but was at 12.7ish around peak tq ending up at 13.0 up top. This was what it liked. Timing is 26-28.5 deg. After tuning the car previously, it had already been setup shifting at 6500. It should find about 4-5 MPH with the TB opening fully.


This is a very nice and very clean car. The work they have done is very neat and clean as well. It's her daily driver too

i still think those numbers sound low. I was runnin a 98 with LS6 intake Kooks LT Headers ASP Pulley 160* T-Stat LS6 oil Pump Comp cams Lifters Crane Dual Springs Titanium Retainers hardened Pushrods Borla Cat-back and put down 335/355tq after a tune. not even mentioning the 133k miles i had when it was dynod... good luck

Agreed ...I purchased 16 in rims and some mt...so hopefully we know this weekend!

Thanks for the input and complements! I not sure y my tb was like that...ill have to keep an I on it and make sure the clamp is staying in place. I know we fixed it to the correct spot when we drilled the bracket and thats the last time I remember is being messed with. O and we fixed it so it opens and shuts completely now...had to let some line out and put clip behind bracket...It is so weird that I am the only one with this issue...right line, right tb...dunno y it does this.

Agreed sounds low to me to but will see this weekend hopefully weather provideing if the cars is running right.

The current 228r is definately XER lobes. If you'd like to checkout some engine dyno data from our cam swap testing give us a call. We can fax you over tons of dyno results!!

Yours holds on to the power after 6000, so that's ok. The TSP printout is with 1 7/8"-2" stepped headers and since its on a engine dyno I would assume no catback either. The bigger exhaust usually gains more at the top.

Was the converter locked on the dyno? And just to clear this up, were the track times with the TB not opening all the way?

stall was locked

and track times tb was open all the way. I dont know when or how my throttle cable got the way it was on dyno... as far as I know...but not 100% so friday when I go I ll give an update....I am going to keep eye on it make sure the clip is holding.

still doesnt explain tq/hp # so low

kinda would explain my low mph
I just dont understand how it got that way I didnt touch it...maybe just a freak thing...

109mph sounds more like 330rwhp than 360rwhp.

any updates? i have a slightly bigger cam than you and i put down 370 rwhp on a mustang dyno....lol when i first went to the track i ran shitty because i kept bogging the launch with like a 2.3 60 ft, but ran a 13.1 at 110 mph, with a bad 3rd synchro. are you launching the car? you have to either launch it hard or stomp the gas at the green because it will bog in between. and if your tires hook hold on. but if not then you will jsut spin and slow you down.

waiting for friday,..track...

I put 364/345 on a dynojet

this will be my 1st run on mt...i had streets and have had nitto-both sucked

I tried launching but seems to feel better just nailed it...maybe i not at right rpm...what r u launchin at?

Density Calc:

Relative Density: 99.93 %

Correct your ET and MPH using the DA (Beta Testing)

Stock and Mildly Modified Naturally Aspirated Engines
12.448 @ 112.131 MPH

Extensively Modified Naturally Aspirated Engines
12.508 @ 111.841 MPH

Extensively Modified Supercharged and Turbocharged Engines
12.461 @ 112.119 MPH

What yall think? Better than it was, 60 still needs some work and think it has a few more mph...

Good runs, that looks a little more like it. Like you said though, the 60's still aren't where they should be with a your stall and tire. What is your launch technique?

You know you got good DA when corrected numbers are worse than the actual numbers. I hope Rockingham has air like that tonight.

And when available I would always let my GF run, due to her being 100 pounds lighter. It looks like you have a similar case (or you can just out drive him).

On a night when you can get more runs, I would try playing with it. And most do well just leaving barely above idle. Mine does best at 900-1000 though I have a stock stall. Still start at idle and work your way up in 500 rpm increments. When you find one that works better then start playing with the rpms in that general area. a few hundred rpms make a big difference.

...and you have a 6-speed to her automatic. Nothing to be confused about, 6-speed cars always dyno higher mod for mod.


The car trapped 112 Friday night and ran a 12.4 with a 1.9 60'. A 1.5-1.6 second 60' should put the car in the 11s. Other than the 60', I don't see a lot that is wrong here.

The car sounded good moving down the track Friday night Tiffany.
