Default Ok numbers

My car dynoed 280hp, 297tq with the cutout open, 3:42s, and the mods in my sig. I think it was 86 degrees and at 1000 altitude. It dynoed 5hp less than the 2 LS1s there and at least 10hp over the other LT1s.

Get a tune in there too, and that'll up a fair amount.

M6 I assume?

You think you would be depressed, I dynoed 236 to the wheels now thats depressing. Forget the dyno though I need to hit the track.

OP good numbers for not to many mods through the auto.

There was a camaro there with some mods that dynoed 245, but it had almost 200000 miles on it so don't feel too bad if it doesn't do what you think it should. I was getting ready for a big let down, comparing to the others, I thought mine was going to be around 260. Something was wrong with the computer and wouldnt register the 3:42 gears and was reading 188hp, I about cried! but then he got it figured out to read correctly.

well I only dynoed 308hp/320tq brian after the rebuild with my mods...







but it does have a big stall in it...lol...you need to mod the T/A..I will run you next time I go to SDR if you want and see where we stand..I cant wait to see how the stall works on the track as this is my first stalled auto...but I wouldnt be upset about those numbers...autos arent dyno queens..track is where its at

when we dynoed mine after the rebuild and all it only dynoed 264...but that was in 4th gear like an idiot....I almost freaked out when I saw the screen....I was upset I spent that much money and only made that much power..even with the stall..then we tried it in 3rd and the hp went way up

Wayne I am sure your car will run at least low low 13s. Maybe 12s with the stall. But yeah I would love to run them at SDR!

I think 96 is probably the worst year for the Mudstain. For real, what was Ford thinking with the modular motor? I was at the NMRA event at Beech Bend Saturday and it was hard to see everything but the badass cars were running big blocks and turbos. Seems like I saw a few mod motors but most of them were spraying or FI. The N/A ones were in the stockish classes turning 13-15's.
