Just had my 85 GT dyno'd. The HP was just about where I expected it, 275 @ 6000 RPM RWHP, but the torque peeked just under 290 @ 4200 RPM. Doesn't this seem a little week? I was kind of expecting something in the neighborhood of 310/320. I advanced the ignition to 15 initial and 34 advanced. I plan on bumping the advanced to 36 and rejetting my carb some more, but other then that I can't think of what else to do. Any suggestions for more torque?
