Made a few pulls...

This isn't too bad for having a McLeod ST clutch, S60 rear,and heavy-*** 17x9.5 LG wheels w/ET streets. Track times are next.

Here is a topic, about parasitic loss between a 9inch vs. S60. GMHTP did an article a while back, and from what I gather, the 9inch is 3% more than a 10 bolt, and the S60 is 3% more than the 9inch. I've also found several members saying that they've lost 15-20hp from switching from a 9inch vs. S60.

track times ****!! you aint gonna hurt it
~6K on stickies and side step it, pedal to the floor you only need to let off the clutch a little bit!
you got a printout of the A/F ratio? that cant be the actual readout for it, just looks way to flat.
btw, what gear set is in the s60? IIRC.... 3.73's?
get some good NA ET's and put the spray on it! the car will be lethal then, and dont tell me it cant handle it fugger! ;p
EDIT: oh and damnit come up here to Byron to get your track times!! **** GIR

Couldn't tell ya if those are corrected or not. Tony could tell ya that. That is the actual prinout of the A/F ratio, I had a little help on straightening it out

4:10 gears w/35 spline axles, w/Tru-Trac posi in the S60. Seems that it has a 6% drivetrain loss, through it. Either the first or second week in Aug, we'll be up your way...Not sure what track yet.
forget that, bring it to Byron...very fast track and closer for me!
only way i would say go to GIR is if Timmy met you there for some logging and tuning the passes.
you started looking into N2O setups yet?

btw, what do those heads flow/lift? valve size?

.600 N/A 199
.650 N/A 199
Thats the info I got from JDC Engineering, from Minonk,IL. Nah, I haven't been looking at N2O setups, BIG aftermarket heads/BIG cams, or looking to sell it all for a Turbo setup

We could do Byron, thats cool.
. I thought I was being agressive with a 12.5:1 fo most of my curve but it looks like you went way past that.for comparison I'm running a 12.5:1 SCR, 9:1 DCR, 12.5:1 AFR, and slightly bigger heads, valves (vale seats as well), and a 396 to keep rpms down... though we're peakign about the same so I imagine my cam is a bit more agressive as well. That said you're only about 40hp lower so I'd have to say you did a nice job tuning it in.
I tune with a permantly-mounted WB which I log with... do you have any AFR numbers off the dyno? I find dyno AFR to be abit richer than on the street with heavier loads (i.e. hills, extra passengers, full weight of vehicle vs drums, etc...).
Just seems a little scarey to me to be at 14:1 on a dyno hoping it won't go leaner than that on the street.
Any feedback would be great... like I said I think you did a great job in wrenching out the ponies on this one. It's gotta be a stroker... 396?

Its a 383 stroker
