I talked with the tuner today. He said the car pulls hard up to 3500RPMs then it just drops off. He is wondering if we need to put in a different length pushrod. I currently have 7.400 in there. My stock heads are milled 0.015, do you think I would need to go to a 7.350? I hope we figure out whatever the problem is, as this is really starting to suck.

if they're only milled .15 you should be fine. check the gas, clean the injectors, check the plugs. do a thorough go-over.

it sounds like Ravenous T/A's car put down like 316rwhp on 7 cylinders.. then realized a plug wire was off. so go through and check all the plug wires to make sure their 'clicked' on each side.

Hurray!!!!!!! We found the problem. The tuner said the rear 02 sensors and the knock sensors were not working correct, which was screwing the timing up. Hopefully tomorrow my numbers will be north of 320 rwhp

Just like if you have a lower (ie 3.73 vs 2.73's) gear ratio in also that can throw the #'s off.

the weight in the rear has nothing to do with the rwhp numbers.
