Did some changes.
PRC 225 AS CAST ported and bigger valves 2.100 by LE
Ported fast 92 by LE
ATI 917276
The shop that had the dyno jet went out of business, so i had to take to this other place with a mustang dyno. It was running lean at the start so we only did one pull. I need to get the afr fixed.

Something doesn't look right with that dyno curve.
Power and torque are falling off too early especially with the camshaft size you are using.
Power is also low.

They didn't think it would hit 480rwhp on their dyno and it did 544. I still have the stock maf on it, that might be chocking it some.

Go to the track and run it 2 to 3 times and get your mph. Even if your e.t sucks the mph tells the POTENTIAL of the combo.

Dynos are a tuning tool but it doesn't tells how fast a car will go. And another thing Cujo, all dynos are different. Dont get discouraged. Go run your car and have fun.

Thanks Tusky. It feels strong and once they open the track again I will see how much difference the changes did.
