New ARE H/C A-4 Dyno #'s

These are the same 4.8 ltr. heads that I got from ARE while Wade was still there. Now I've been working with Nick to try to get just a little extra. They added my new Jessel 1.8's and Patriot's dual valve spring since the comp 921's were on back order (these were also $200 less). The cam is still my 230/230 with 590 lift on a 112. ARE also had to tune for the new 90MM FAST with the TPIS TB and 85MM MAF. I expected higher peak #'s but it picked up more mid than I expected.
This is through mufflers, an A-4, and a 12 bolt. The belt was also on.
Peak power was 434 RWHP and the torque was 450 which is hard to measeure with a loose converter but a do have a manual valve body so it does stay in gear. It picked up 10 peak HP and 20-25 throughout the mid range which I was very happy about.
Thanks to Nick and the guys for the great service.
New times will be seen at North vs. South as long as I get everything else dialed in.

Good to meet you as well Chris. Too bad your weather sucked while I was there. The Peelers (as you guys call them) were good though.
I'm pretty confident it will go a 10.50 or better in the right air at my current weight. Testing will start this Saturday at US 41.

Thanks guys.
01-Z "no spots for you"
Converter was locked at the end of the pull and picked up 12hp on the graph. It seemed to be driving through the converter though. I think the lock up is going out.

They're not milled much at all. I forgot the exact # but I believe it is the same as their standard stage 2. The heads make a ton of torque, Before these set of changes my 60ft went from 1.48 t0 1.41-1.43 with the same cam. MPH went from 123.75 to 125.75.
