That should be easy to do with a TH350 over a TH400 as it is lighter, and if you get the right converter along with a 12 bolt rear you should be really close. Depending on cam and supporting mods.

I made 470rwhp with a TH400 etc...... my car is not setup to work well on a dyno.

Just back from a long drive with Mike to verify drivability and all I can say is she's as smooth as SILK !!! Idles with the air on and no stumbles or studders. No wierd unexplained RPM increases when the a/c is on either. As hot as it is she felt STRONG.

Drivability improvements alone were worth the trip to Vengeance Racing.

Wow, excellent gains Doug. I'm very surprised at the overall gains and I'm sure you're happy as a pig in ****. This could also be a poster child thread for "dyno racing" seeing as the LG dyno put you at 517/513 and your Vengeance baseline was 494/484. Kudos to all involved for a great comparo and results.

Great results! Why not 225's instead of 215's for this car?

Great results Ron and Doug. It is very nice to see back to back comparo's. I wanted to get the Big 3" on my car before I sold it, looks like an outstanding system. Go put it back on LG's rollers and you will have atleast 555rw.

The baseline dyno difference has as much to do with the weather as the dyno, IMO.

Great results guys. I really want to take some time off to come up and get a tune on my car. If I pay for a tune now...and get one of those famous ported FAST 92/92 later in the year after my promotion (Nov.09) can I get a discount on a re-tune? LOL

You got it Chris. Now get your dad motivated to send the car or pay me to drive the car to Vengeance for him.
