Default Drivetrain Loss strikes again

well.... the car is doing 11.0s on the spray and 12.0s on the motor so that makes me happy. Just sharing the numbers on the dyno as well. I guess the Turbo 350 w/ 4500 stall. Ford 9" do eat power. I was also on 16PSI MT Et Street Radials, but here they are. MODS IN SIG

N/A: 350hp / 336tq
150 shot: 481hp/446tq

like i said, they are just numbers. I expected a little higher, but I am auto w/ 9", 4500 stall, so a lot of loss in the drivetrain. The numbers at the track reflect well I think ;-)

Your spraying a 150 shot with a 4500 stall?

I would think a 150 shot would make your stall flash real high like 6500 or so and blow right through the converter making it pretty much useless.

actually i did learn that lesson. the hughes was very very loose and I was flashing in excess of 6500. I removed it and took it to a guy that tightened it up and took 2,000 rpm out of the flash stall. She does not barely flash in excess of the 4500 marker anymore.

like i always say,dyno numbers aren't everything.you do have a power robbing drivetrain and the lower pressures on the tires are hurting you a little.
