Default TR230, stock heads

Finally got the car on a dyno. It was at a local import shop and they didn't have a probe that would work with my cutouts so I didn't get A/F ratio. For $55 bucks/3 runs I didn't complain. I picked up 5rwhp on each run, I guess the LS1 likes some heat in it. This was the best and last of the 3. This is still on the mail order tune, I just wanted to see what kind of power it took to run my track numbers. The car was setup just like I race it, open cutouts and a short belt. I would have dynoed without the cutouts but I was paranoid about dropping my wingnuts into the AWD dynojet. Mods and track times in sig.

Thanks for all the great comments guys. I really think it'll pick up some power with a dyno tune. I have some 42lb. injectors and a LS6 MAF waiting to go on. I'll probably do an 85mm lid at the same time.

ChiefDave, it was a 1.69. I'm walking it out at 3500rpm. I'm going to put an LS7 clutch in it along with my Pro-Shifted T56 and see if I can get some real times and mph out of it next spring. I'd like to have the smallest cam on the fastest cam only list. If that doesn't work out I have an NX system begging to go on. Here's a link to my last timeslip for this year.

Holy nuts man, did you see the date on this thread? Lemme remember...home ported MAF, FAST 90/90, Hooker LTs, dual cutouts in Y-pipe, short belt, LS6 clutch, stock alum DS, Strange 12 bolt w/4.11s. I dynoed it just like I raced it, but I never had it tuned for the 90/90, just a mail order from TSP for the LS6 intake. I just put together a TR230 cammed LS6 that I would like to get in the 10s, really this combo should have been 10s but I never launched hard because of the driveshaft and stock clutch. Wiped a rod bearing so I moved on. Good luck with your combo, this cam is a great street/strip piece.
