AFR lt4 ported heads
Hooker Long Tubes
Hooker Exhaust
Big Cam (can't remember numbers at this momment)
3500 STall
3:73's Posi
Funtional Ram air (predator hood)

and most likly more stuff that Im forgetting.

My numbers are:

342.0 RWHP 356.0 RWTQ - Mustang Dyno

It is tuned and everything.

All work was done by Exotic Performance Plus (EPP) in Fort Wayne, IN.

So are my numbers about right, low, or high?

I'm horrible with memory, and I had it all wrote to myself on SIFYBC, but I can't access that so I gotta look for my complete purchase printout. I'll post again once I can find it.

By your before and after #'s in your sig - you picked up 70 RW. It's an automatic... they don't really dyno high. Hopefully you have some track #'s for it when it dyno'd 272 to compare against when you run it with the current set up.

My car dyno'd 348 RW w/ every bolt on but an EWP, my converter was locked for the run, and is very efficient. But, it's an LS1 and they are dyno queens...

Run the car at the track and let the results be the proof.

Keep in mind BEFORE MODS was on a DYNOJET (they dyno high).

After mods were on a Mustang Dyno (dyno accurate aka low).

I havn't had it to the track yet, but i gotta get out there and do that sometime.

Thanks Iroc

NP, I'm just a firm believer in ET's and not so much dyno #'s. It's nice to pull out a graph and show people... but then again so is a timeslip with a low ET.

I'm not 100% sure, but I believe Bob Cosby once said - "a dyno does not go down the dragstrip."

Amen to that.
