What Alonzo said. I will post again the new numbers after I get the car dynoed with a new intake, fuel system, open cutout and a locked up converter. I might have the timing increased as well to see what this puppy will put out.

I dynoed 450rwhp/502rwtq unlocked on the same dyno with 31 degrees of timing.
#'s sound good I bet you would have 440rwhp with the converter locked even with those heads that are built for nitrous.
