Default 473rwhp/446 ft.lbs, not too shabby for an LT1

well got it on the dyno tonight, rings still aren't seated and i need to change to synthetic oil .

thanks to Wikid ta, he gave me his old program, which made the car drivable and allowed me to get some miles on everything i picked up almost 20 rwhp/24 lb.ft once Dave Henninger got done tuning it. and the A/f line is almost as straight as a rulers edge hovering at just under 13.0. i can still throw another 2 degrees of timing at it on 110 unleaded race fuel Dave Henninger said it was nicest lt1 camaro that he had ever tuned

thanks to Donnie Walsh Jr. For allowing Dave to come down to his shop to do the tuning, with very short notice, great bunch of guys at the shop there!

thanks to Brian Harshaw (Harshaw Racing Engines) for putting the motor together! shows you what a small town builder can do! i am up almost 37 rwhp, and 38 lb.ft tq from last year! i know tuning is a big part of it, but all the little things added up! Thanks Brian! alot of things were taken care of while the motor was apart and being reassembled, imo as well as his. i would recommend him to anyone! no not a selling point just a fact!

rob and i did the port mod on my new lt4 intake, and i properly port matched the heads and intake along with the PROPER F'n roller rockers for the cam that was stuffed into the motor last year. the geometry was incorrect as measured by Brian, and I even verified that i wasn't getting the proper lift! oh well, no longer is that an issue

thanks for coming out Roman, hell i owe you a Wendy's dinner

for the doubters...it was a dynojet 248-a....does that sound right? or was it c, ah who cares. 10's here i come

well i better get to bed, gotta drive to toronto very very early! now someone can copy this link and send it to you know who...lmao!!! like i give a ratzazz

Good job Taner,

Sounds like you have that motor working allot closer to its potential. Those are good numbers out of a stock intake. The stick helps a little too

So now that your getting ready are you going to be out racing with the rest of us in the OSCA this year? How about Canada's fastest street car in July. I wanna see you row those gears

TTYS

Congrats again Taner! Glad to see you guys improved 20hp over my old DFI program. Dave Henninger sure knows his stuff.

I might have to have him tune my new F.A.S.T System.

CFSC sounds aweful good to me! i think i will end up in wild street. thanks Vince! you can bet your *** i will be rowing the gears. that was 20 hours of porting, but well worth it imo.

Hey Taner,

Glad to hear you are planning on making it out. Wild Street is my class too only 300hp?? 32 square is it eh! Cool. Rowing those gears with that deep a first gear on regular slicks is going to be fun to watch. Thats allot of first gear for that kinda power. I went the other way and have gone to a powerglide. Gonna be fun either way. Let me know if your coming...you can pit with us if you like all you have to do is bring something for the BBQ

Good luck and I hope it works well for you. Feel free to ask if you need my help with anything.
