Default Under the curve power?

I was out doing a little tuning and decided to video this. Let's see what you guys got. I think mysetup has pretty fat torque band for a 346 with unported heads and small cam. 3.42 gears in 4th gear.

50-60 = 1.71 seconds (2300-2800 rpm)
60-70 = 1.562 (2800-3250)
70-80 = 1.576 (3250-3680)
80-90 = 1.962 (3680-4180) 3 degree's knock retard @ 4000 rpm doh!
90-100 = 1.735 (4180-4640)
100-110 = 1.665 (4640-5100)
110-120 = 1.636 (5100-5550)
120-130 = 2.137 (5550-6000)
130-140 = 2.73 (6000-6450)

All in all pretty linear acceleration I would say, and as you can how big of a factor wind resistance becomes above 120 mph.

I gained a lot going from an LS6 intake to a ported 85mm Fast I did and installing an underdrive pulley. The car pulls so much better and looking at old logs I have picked up quite a bit. Should be over 430rwhp / 400 tq no problem now. Not bad for unported 243's and a custom 224 cam

Correct, Open loop speed density with maf delete. MAF failure set to Mil on 1st error reported. I suppose I can shut the light off, since I know it's in SD, but I have not done so yet.

It's not the greatest, 275/40-17 Nexen tires. Will blow them off if I hammer it in 1st at 2500 rpm and if I shift hard into 2nd the car goes sideways laying rubber up to 70 mph. My Midwest Chassis 9" with 4.11's will be in shortly, I will post more vids with the 4.11's. Traction will be a lot worse but now I won't have to worry about destroying the 10 bolt at the track with slicks.

Also with the cutout open I gain 17 hp / 13 tq and it was closed on that video. Here is a little burnout with cutout open when I had the LS6 intake.

I have to upload the crappy video somehow. No 3.42's though.
M6, 347, d1sc, 4.10's, 700rwhp. 4th gear 70-110mph in about 3.8 secs.

Be sure you factor in the fact that as you increase speed, the resistance against the car increases exponentially. So, while your 50-60 and 110-120 times may be very similar, your car is doing a LOT more work in the same amount of time at the higher speed. In short, this isn't a very scientific test.

Yes I do understand that. This was far from a scientific test, more of a comparison with other similar geared cars. Apparently no one wants to post up the acceleration of there setups (under the curve, below 5000 rpm).

Well guys I have confirmed my suspicions of my "power under the curve". 365 rwtq @ 3000 rpm, thats 30 ft lbs more than my bolt on car made at peak torque! 414 max torque now
