I have not picked the car up yet. Did have a brief conversation with someone there today and was given ball park numbers. I will post dyno sheets when I get them. I will say the numbers basically floored me so I want to see them first for myself.

I watched the car on the dyno as well. You have a very strong running car. You did a nice job putting the car together. I can't wait to see what it does at the track.

I am curious to know your numbers as well. What pistons did you use? I wonder if your Pacesetter's are that much better than my FLP pieces of crap?

Please do.

Thanks

I will be picking up the car and the dyno graph this evening. I will have them posted late this evening. Probably around 10pm or so. I was told on the phone something like 540/530. I was pretty much speechless. I was maybe expecting in the 475 area being optimistic. I understand a dyno is just a tuning tool and probably not the most accurate method to rate any particular engine build. The true test will be when I get it to the track. If i come across a dyno day anytime soon w/ a mustang or a dynojet dyno where I can get a quick and cheap pull I will just to compare numbers.

I bought the car with the 408 in it. I added the FAST intake and Patrick G spec cam. It originally had a BBK and Torquer 2. The previoius owner had it dynoed on a Dyno jet through open y pipe and put down 465/482 through 10 bolt. In addition to intake and cam I added 9" w/ 4.11's and TSP true duals. The 408 has Eagle crank and h beam rods along w/ Wiseco pistons. The heads were ported in house by previous owner and FAST 90 was ported by the person I just bought it from on here. As far as Pacesetters being better than FLP's I dont know.
