but doubt I'll be running my car this year.

Might be interesting to see what the 79 z28 can do before I do a few upgrades to it

300 miles for a baseline on a 79 just wait till a portland dyno day for your baseline. besides if you want to be accurate you have to dyno on the same dyno and drivnig 300 miles for a dyno is quite a bit

Ah, well you were headed up there right? It's not 300 miles for me either, but we'll see. The cost for the dyno pull is pretty decent and I want a dynojet to test on.

LMAO!! Premium AAA member but she runs strong! Might throw a rod on the dyno but it'll do 65-75 all day long
You guys just need to push me out onto the road and call AAA for me and it's a free tow home

Yea, that was the last thing I had told nick that I thought the TB was probably askew, as I had got all of the DTC's to clear and it was stuck at 19%open. I did have to swap a couple wires around on the adapter harness though. I will try and stop by tomorrow. I think I want to add some 60lb injectors anyway, so maybe we can order both and the elbow?
