haha Fully know about numbers are number but i just love how you always get the occasional "seems a bit low" comments no matter what you dyno. Cracks me up.

The people who always say everything dynoed low are the same ones who will be asking why they "only" made 405 rwhp cam only

My car is heads/cam and I currently have Dynatech LT's (the older coated ones). They are 1-3/4's (the newer ones are 1-3/4 that are stepped to 1-7/8's, but I don't think mine are...I'll have to check) and the coating is coming off. I'm thinking about upgrading to some American Racing 1-7/8 headers instead of having mine recoated. I know the bigger motors pick up when upgrading to the larger headers, but I'm not sure if I'll gain anything. I'm pretty sure I won't lose from where I'm surrently at.

I fully recommend going 1 7/8. I am a little bias toward kooks but i know ARH are some damn nice pieces. If i remember right when we ran it to 6250ish, i still only lost 4-5hp from 6100. For the most part, that is a lot less drop off then i had expected.

Negative. This was a very non optioned car, not even TC. Besides just the slp part # to make it a SS. Nothing extra.

First pass ever in this car with 275 drag radial on stock rims, opening day was a 13.0 107 2.2.
Ended the day with a 12.89 108 2.0. With a stall and hotter, more rubber on the track i should be able to cut that down a bit more. I am happy with it. 1,450 FT 67 degrees.



I will get better pictures up later.
