That 8inch converter and th400 doesn't show good dyno numbers, the dyno may show like 425rwhp for a setup like this, which would be WAY off on actual power.

z28racerlt1 again sweet setup, you may already now this, but if you work over the plenum on that super vic I bet you could pick up some pretty good power along with the 950 setup you mentioned

Wow, very impressive congrats!! How much HP did it make on the dyno? Are those the eliminator heads or the old style?

After I get the new carb on there and run it this season, I might start to look for all those tiny gains here and there.

I haven't been on a chassis dyno. I am not a big fan. It always pisses me off. I like the results on the track. The motor did make 633hp and 546 tq on an engine dyno.

I am not sure if the heads are elim or old style. I got them new from the engine builder. Hell they could have had them forever. Not too many people are building LT motors anymore.
