So trailered my car over to the dyno on saturday afternoon, as many people know i have had hell with this car and having glowing red/orange headers,,, which spells out LEAN LEAN LEAN,,,,well put it on the machine, first pull it put down 178RWHP and 221RWTQ, bumped the vacuum FP to 39# from 31# and 2nd pull 282RWHP 315RWTQ or so,,,,
bumped the FP to 40# and 10* timing put down 328RWHP 350RWTQ, 4th pull set timing at 9* and FP at 40# still and put down 329RWHP and 347RWTQ, for pull 5 and 6 bumped timing to 12* and FP to 42# put down 373RWHP 427RWTQ not to bad for a 347 w/ 8.5:1 compression, i only have around 300miles on this car so I readjusted the timing to 9* and 40# FP so i could finish the break in. In @ 1000miles will bump back up to 12-14* and 42# FP with 91octane,, heres the dyno sheet of the 3rd and 4th pull and below is what i have done to the car so far,, what do you guys think?????

soon to come is a KB 2.2L Flowzilla

i would have thought that combo would have kissed 400 high 390's..... maybe just me

edit: just saw the compression, and realized that this is a future blower setup i would say that's good numbers
