Well after almost 2.5 months at PHP shes home and it was worth it. All I can say is WOW this car is an absolute animal. Once again she made poor dyno numbers but shes never been a dyno queen. I honestly don't know why it always dynos low and even Paul said the same thing, that it feels sooo much faster. I guess at the end of the day though the time slip is all that counts.


Also I got to take out a nice Camaro today, I guess his H/C/I just wasn't enough.

Here is the dyno sheet and FWIW when I went from 390rwhp to 415rwhp I went from running 12.2s to 11.6s letting out at the 1000' mark.

Looking sharp! I agree, the numbers on the bottom of the timeslip are way more important that what's on the dyno sheet! Either way though, those are still some nice hp/tq numbers!

yeah, your car has always been faster than the dyno shows - auto's can be misleading. Especially built auto's

Yea Im hopin to get to the track before then to get some test runs in. The car is a handful from a dig, as in 0 traction.

A friend of mine is riding up with me and were both going to race it up there. He has been dead on calling my traps and ETs since I got my car and he said the car should be a solid 10sec car in the 130s.

I got a few races into night and eariler toady in FT Wayne and lets just say that there are some very upset Camaro drivers right now. HEHE

Thanks for the compliments guys! I can finally say I’m happy with the car, it looks good and finally runs good.

For anyone local I’ll be at Halls pretty much every weekend from now on if you want to take a closer look at her and just shoot the sh**.

NICE! Cant wait to see what she does at the track!

And your dyno is saying that your making only 457RWHP @ 20PSI???? Are they not locking in your converter? If they are not, then that explains it....I have heard of over 100RWHP differences from just locking the converter. Then almost another 100 between locked auto and a 5/6spd. So yea dyno #s dont mean jack in your case....but it is great for winning alot of money
Show them the sheet and play dumb and beat the crap out of some poor chevy boys

It might not be, I don't know and I never thought to ask.

I know what you mean about playing dumb. When I went to leave last night a guy in a 01 Camaro followed me out. He was talking to me earlier about what my car was making and how his Camaro was making around 420rwhp. Well we hit a light and went to take off and at about 30 he hit it and pulled about a half a car on me. I smashed the pedal, spun a little, and about 2 secs later I was hitting the breaks at 90 with a solid 4 car lead on him. I don't think he knew what the hell happened. LOL

This was with a passener and full tank of gas in my car.

I don't know, I'm afraid if I lower it its going to hook even worse. If any thing I might do some racing suspension.
