Default Dyno results for the brute.

Ok, took it to the Dyno yesterday and she put down 427 / 455 first pass. The guys yanked the carb, rejetted it, change the acelerator pump spring etc. and we went again. She maxed out at 437 / 460 while spinning on the Dyno. We tried changing tire pressure but still had a big wobble in the graph on all runs. Man that TH400 is eating a lot of power. They did get the A/F dead on and got rid of a nasty hesitation it had. I got a fresh pair of QTP's to put on today so maybe I can sneak back up there for another run or two. They figure she's making about 580 at the crank. Time for a manual shift valve body I guess.

Those are great results

Turbo 400 and 700r4's suck about the same in case you ever want to change out...

The hp number is more like 550 Flywheel (which is a great number for that combo)!

Was that SAE corrected? You got to watch those dyno guys, some times they forget and leave the last import correction in there....

Nah, Meridian Performance MPS up in Bellingham. They did 10 runs with A/F, pulled and rejetted the carb, played with the timing and A/F for 1.5 hours. The cost? $162.00. These guys do big blocks for a living and have 6,7 and 8 second cars all over their walls. They know their ****.

Here's a link: http://wcdirectory.com/mps

It puts ya in the seat. I'm thinking about a TCI 4400 flash stall for it.

Cool...Now we have dyno jets from south to north Washingon

A 3500 "10 inch" flashed to 4500ish in my friends 439ci BB Chevelle...You might want to rethink that stall!!! Unless they can guarantee that is the stall after install on your combo.......

Very nice numbers! What is the rpm range? Is it a flat curve?

The range was from 3000 to 6000 and it was decently flat. Max TQ at 4300 and Max HP at 5700.

Not yet, it's green, kinda ugly (old paint) and just doesn't look like much until it fires up.

Definitely something to think about. The tq of a BBC will most likely always flash higher than what it's rated at.

Plus I thought you wanted to spray it? If that is the case then it will stall even higher. I'd suggest a 3200-3500 n2o converter.

MPS is a good place. Into Stangs, but it runs 8s (as I recall) up at Mission, and they are nice guys overall. Dynoed my 2000 up there.

Great numbers, especially considering how much driveline loss you have. Not to argue with Jimbob, but I'm with them at 580. You gotta be losing 25% with that setup, which works out to multiplying the rwhp # by 1.33 to get crank #s. Either way, it's gotta be fun to drive. Congrats Charlie...can't wait to see that thing in person.

Thanks guys. Forest green? Hell, I don't know. It's between medium and dark green. I put the stickies on her yesterday and she flat hooks after a bit of heat. It's not strong enough to suit me yet but I reckon that 871 would cure that. More power can come later after I tweak what I've got.
