Pretty much HP and rpm. He is pulling at 6800 rpm so he is well out of the tq range

Finally got the Strange axles in and decided to step the carb up to a 750 since the cam and heads were added. We will hit the dyno Monday evening

Lol, thanks man. I enjoy it because it gives me a change from drag racing but still involves LS stuff. Plus I am not having to flip the bill on it, lol.

Numbers will be pretty low considering it's going on Pauls mustang dyno.

That and the super loose 5500 converter that it has in it. But with the heads and cam it picked up 120 hp more over his last dyno session at Paul's. Very pleased in the gains

Wow! 120rwhp with just a cam and head swap!

How much torque did it gain?

I don't even remember Martin. Part of the reason the gains were so high is because it had shitty stock 98 heads. Plus we added a 750 on top over the 650 carb he was running

You didn't tell me you were putting a new carb on it too!

Paul told me it picked up 90rwtq. Said it pulled really well from 4500-6800 and then held flat to a little past 7000rpm.

Seeing how his converter flashes 5500, that strong 4500-7000rpm power band should really help get that weight up and moving on the sled.

The carb was a last minute decision kinda. I'm confident she is gonna be a monster with the changes. Thanks for the help Martin

Ok so we had our first pull of the year today and didn't know what to expect after the head swap and custom cam by Martin at Tick Performance........ Let's say it went well considering he had to pedal to a full pull......
