Yeah, I will. I've been getting all this remotely as I have been out of town. I got a dyno sheet, but apparently it wasn't the corrected smooth one. It does reflect the numbers though, and I will post it.

Are the numbers SAE or uncorrected?

Should be SAE, but I'll confirm when I talk with the tuner later.

You're car is definitely my favorite LT1 car I've ever seen. That epic race with the 382 LS1 is at the top of my list of youtube videos.

Thanks dude

Now that "The wait is finally over", I hope to be doing some new vids. I need to get a new camera though. Mine is old, and I want to film in full HD.

Not much left I really want to do to be honest. There's a couple very minor things not related to the engine or tune I want to fix (a brake issue for example).

I have thought about putting a different sway bar combo in the car.

I just drove it for the first time. Haven't made any WOT hits yet as I wanted to listen and see its normal driving habits first.

Timing was at 26 degrees. I will check my wideband when I make a WOT run, but my tuner and I agreed that it should be around 11.5 (I am assuming by fuel you meant wideband O2).

Heres the "un-smoothed" dyno sheet. I'm working on getting the better one, but this gives you an idea. You can see it was still pulling up top. I really wish he would have taken it to 7,000 to hit the 700 RWHP mark, but I guess that leaves me something to do later.

Looks like a nice smooth power curve. After all that time, why wouldn't he spin it to 7k? By the way, the graph says STD so those numbers aren't SAE. Not to burst your bubble but depending on the weather conditions of the day, the SAE numbers may be a bit lower. Go invest in a HD camera so you can get some new video.

Why does the torque drop off so abruptly, is that where the D1 had enough?

Just spoke with the the tuner. This was one of multiple runs. This sheet was standard, but he made another that was SAE corrected and it reflected almost identical numbers (just a few under 700). I'll get the other sheet when the tuner gets back to his shop.

Dunno. I'll look at my other sheets but I think I saw similar curves before with the TQ. I still gained over my previous TQ of 555 at the wheels. Perhaps it's the cam?

What are your valvesprings and pushrods?

If they are up to the task you need to spin that thing dude! You got killer bottom end and a 24x setup, gotta spin at least 7200 to make it worth while LOL! It was still making power .

Over 700rwhp for sure.
