Finally had my iron 408 tuned on a Dynocom dyno. I cant give enough praise to Bammann Racing Engines for the build and Wicked Motorsports for the tune (both in NJ). The car pulls very strong throughout the entire RPM range, I'm looking forward to cruising and racing this year.
Congrats! Will you be taking it to the track? I have a 427 w/ standard TFS 235s that didn't do nearly as well. I have a 6 spd as well. Had 4.10s till they broke but now have 3.73s. I'd love to see how they compare at the track (trap speeds).
Great numbers .Thats were I was hoping my 408 would be but the 243 heads just didnt get me there but will get it there. so for now 525/496 is good enough.

I do plan to hit a rental at some point this year. Although the combo appears to be straightforward there's a lot of little things that add up. I hope to run ~10.40's @ 135mph
Any details on the custom Vac Pump ?? I'm very interested , especially if it would come out cheaper then the GZ setup .... Awesome numbers btw
Thanks.
Moroso 3 vane pump mounted via AEI CNC custom bracket. The lines, fittings and adj releif valve (on driver's side valve cover) were spec'd by the engine builder, Bammann Racing Engines. All in cost was ~$850. The GZ kit is def effective but I wanted mine out of the way. Pics are in the link below my car picture

I seriously considered keeping my Livernois Stg 3 243's for this build but got what I wanted for 'em so upgraded. 525/496 is getting it done either way.

Another ls car with the AEI bracket. Very nice piece and I love how it pulls the pump in. Run it on my car with the ATI hub.
LOL yes the numbers are NA, this combo prob makes ~665hp at the crank.
I held off a turbo/powerglide Stang that runs ~135mph so the dyno numbers are prob spot on. The next step is to reconnect the Lingenfelter box/2step and get some track pulls. Then wire up the solenoids and let her rip on the bottle!
