Something is definitely wrong. I wouldn't listen to everyone that says the Edelbrocks are junk especially since it seems very few have actually tried them. Even if they do suck out the box, there aint no way they still suck after Lloyd got a hold of them. I agree with Flame in that you need to check your AFR among other things. You may want to try locking the converter and verify it isn't puking on you. There is no way I would take it to the track as it sits. It doesn't sound like you have been to the track much so going to the track isn't going to tell you a whole lot when you have all sorts of variables at work. Use the dyno to dial in your tune then go from there.

There is so much bad information in the thread it isn't even funny. The Edelbrock heads flow 232/192 @.600 with a 170cc intake port out of the box. If Lloyd gets the stock castings with 205cc intake port to 270/190 I'm sure these will be equal or more. The main thing in question here should be what is the A/F ratio. There is also no talk about the exhaust on this car at all. Then there is all the people that don't know what a dyno graph from a stalled auto car looks like. The stall will flash giving the high tq right off the bat and then it gets back to actual engine tq around 4400rpm.

I agree with you 100 percent, thanks for the information as well. I agree with you alot of people are saying that they are junk and that they are the cause. I'm going to have my tuner email me the af ratio. Plus i have a hooker catback exaust and clear image automotive Quad 1 longtubes, and CIA highflow cats.

I just bought new stock castings from them. At the time they were sitting on a bunch they had bought up from GM...which was roughly a year and a 1/2 ago. Here is a sound clip open and closed cut out through a Magnaflow/DMH electric cut out. http://www.streetfire.net/video/adva...-cu_694817.htm

I only made 330/330 on a mustang dyno with my LE2 setup with full bolt ons and supporting mods.

However i am also dealing with a overheating issue at WOT on the dyno and a ******* misfire at 5800rpm then breaking up even with a new opti. I cant run the car for a full run before it starts to overheat, yet i can beat the snot out of it on the highway with no issue what so ever.

I have faith in the work done, the point being is there's lots of variables to be considered.
