last time I went to the dyno I was running wayyyy rich...had a 10.9:1 a/f ratio at WOT and I put down 229/266...yesterday I went back to have the pull some fuel out of it and they figured they would in the process add 2 degrees of timing...so now running properly on the loaded MUSTANG dyno I put down 240 rwhp and 277 rwtq...not bad for my mods I would say... thanks chung for all your hard work!!
 
CAM IT ! :bang: If ya want to look at drive ability look at it this way... Do you want HP or fuel milage??????? Beside's mine isnt that bad with the cam i have, plus you have the chip witch i would think would make the tuning easier???? BTW:Told you you could take me :notnice: peace

With fairly mild street cams, mileage really isn't that much of an issue. Long duration, high lift cams, by nature, tend to suck a certain amount of uncombusted fuel vapor out of the combustion chamber, especially with higher degrees of overlap. With most street cams (stage 1 TFS, FRPP E-cam, etc.) this is not an issue. I run the aformentioned trickflow and actually saw an improvement in my fuel economy when all was said and done. Jon- you have the X-cam, right? Yours definitely isn't one I would recommend for a more mild build with daily driver duty. However, it can be an excellent cam with the right combo. When do your heads go on?
 
dynoed at wide open performance...john lol I didn't know we were racing at first that was a really crappy launch for me dude...I don't think that really counted as a race cause you had misha in the car and I didn't launch...lol we will get a chance for a fair race one of these days man...

To be honest i really dont know what's in it? All i know is i start making power around 2500 or so and have gone to 5800 and still pulling? The heads and other stuff are going on tonight after i get in from work.... well i'll start the tear down and finish up tomorow! Yes you actually see inprovement's in fuel aconomy with doing H/C/I my buddy did it on a 83 or something full size chevy and he gained not only H.P and T.Q but also a couple more on the milage. It's just really efficent now!! But i'll be down to PIR when they open again to see what improvement's i made! Then i'll hit the dyno :D Why have you heard or seen my car? peace

Jon- I talked to you a year or so ago at starbucks when you had just purchased the car (I think). I have a memory like a steel trap. My car was never around last summer because I could not drive it (I had two fairly invasive leg surgeries), so you would not remember it. After I graduate from U of O tomorrow, I will be back up in the portland area to rejoin the Beaverton stangers.
