447 is in. The LOD X1 cleared everything on my S10. As long as everything continues to go well, she will be on the dyno Thursday and at the dragstrip this weekend

Let it eat...id say 9.5 with perfect conditions. Basically Tim's old combo with the 454 with less compression in a truck and not the Stang. Believe he went 9.2's at around the same weight. Launching ....

I wont post dyno graphs they are make believe numbers and to easily manipulated. Lets just say they were high enough that I'm calling bullshit myself, unless I see it at the track tomorrow.

632 rwhp and 551 foot pound. The tuner put on his site that it was the highest NA LS that's been on his dyno. Again, I call bull on the numbers. I gotta see track numbers!

I left the 4.30's in it to test tomorrow. If those dyno numbers are anywhere close to being right, I will probably have to lift to keep the rpms down. We shall see.

If that is even close to correct, with that S10, you should do great at track.

What tire?
