Dyno numbers before heads and cam - What do you think? Got my dyno number on the "before" pull with mods listed in sig. Numbers with Heads and Cam to follow as soon as install is complete.
337 HP
331 TQ
Does that sound right, low or high with my mods? Car has about 2K miles on it.

Re: Dyno numbers before heads and cam - What do you think? I hope you are right, will post results in less than a week. Anyone else, are these #'s decent for my mods? By the way, the heads are not the ones milled .055, so compression will be close to stock.

The torque seems low but the car only has 2,000 miles on it, so it's probably still not broken in. My car seemed to "gain" around 4,000 miles then again at 10,000 miles. I've heard others say the same. However, I would guess the A/F might be off a little. When the heads and cam go on just make sure the A/F is dead on. I think you'll see over 400rwhp and excellent torque.

Re: Dyno numbers before heads and cam - What do you think? Thanks guys... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
Black bird, I think you are right, it doesn't feel like it has "loosened up" yet. Nothing some miles won't fix. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> It also was not tuned after the header install so maybe the A/F is off a bit. It is getting some dyno tunning with the H/C install so hopefully that will be taken care of too.

Re: Dyno numbers before heads and cam - What do you think? Those are good #'s.They look a little low probly because it was not tuned.I would say an easy 15hp more with a tune.Good luck on the new setup <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
