that second bend in the exaust to carry it to the rear of the car is a major restriction point, it is not even mandrel bent exaust, I would fix this because you definetly are losing some horses there. it cannot account for the amount you are missing but but you might have alot of small contributing factors

I TOTALLY agree with you, my main issue/concern in the prevous motor, bone stock, same carb, same exhaust, same intake made 328whp and like 340tq IIRC, the new motor with a fairly beefy cam, made 336whp and 333tq

So, I don't expect 150hp gain, i do expect it would put out more than 8whp

I can put on some APC decals and get more than that! ;-)

The exhaust is definetly in the plan of things to fix...

I also found out the guy who tuned it never removed the #2 timing pill when he programmed the MSD, so it kept the #2 timing map, which uses 36* of timing past 3000rpms, which from what I have seen/heard/read, is WAYYY to much


Thank you everyone for all the input so far!
