Well, I have been waiting patiently for my car to be done and picked it up today! Called my tuner (Pro-Dyno) out of Charlotte, NC and said bring it up! Macon-Moore Performance did the build and what an awsome job I must say......first I had the stall upgraded from PI3200 recut and stalled to a tight 4000.......got rid of the stock iron short block to an 01 cobra short block with 20,000 miles.......added new guides, chains, tensioners, cobra oil pump, and all gaskets........The patriot stage II heads I had checked out perfect and were just cleaned up and checked.......switched from BBK longtubes to Hooker longtubes and matching H-pipe......upgraded to a bigger tranny cooler with -6 lines......my tuner set the base tune and did the 1rst pull right off the road........now my car with the stage II head and stock short block put down 295/295 std and 287/288 sae.............first pull hot was 328/324! I was stoked.....i was hopeing for over 310....but WOW! After 3 or 4 pulls the timing was set to 26 degs and a/f's were locked in........331HP and 332TQ STD....and 323/324 SAE............compared to the full bolt on short block 262/298.......it made over 80 more HP and 70ft lbs of tq at 6250 rpms and over 50 more hp and tq throughout the power band...!!! Driveability is perfect at low end cruising speeds and the stall is perfect for the street! First test drive on the MT DR's it layed rubber all the way from 10mph all the way till 80!!! LOL......at 25MPH roll it shot straight to 65 by the time it shifted to 2nd........!!!! Shift points are dead on and can't wait to hit the track........11's are coming!!!
