well it pulled lower then what I was hoping for but that's b/c there are a few things that need to be changed. It was pig rich at first but after fixing that and adding 10 degrees of timing it put down 333 RWHP and 338 RWTQ. What hurt me was my air intake system, to many bends so Im switching over to a fox TB set up and the other strike were the headers. I really should have long tube headers the shorty's are just to restrictive. Plus on top of all that Im only running 9:0:1 compression.


The good point is that I was running in the 12's at 110 MPH with the way the car was when he strapped it on the dyno putting down 306 RWHP and 295 RWTQ. So the tune picked me up 27 HP at the wheels and 43 TQ at the wheels so it should definitely rip at the track now.
 
yeah it does, it drives nice now. Still has a minor idle hang at around 1,500 when almost at a stop but once its at a full stop it drops down to to 1,000. Nothing major b/c the overall improvement is really good.
 
Chris put a scanner up to it and it showed no codes. Im starting to wonder if something is iup w/ the engine b/c of the numbers it had, quite a few people are saying it should have put down much more then that and on similar combo's on 331's they are putting down over 350+
 
for a 351 with some mods done to it, it does seem kind of tame. I would have guessed the torque would have been much higher. Maybe its that mystery cam:D.
Something is limiting it somewhere. Intake? Throttle body? Cats? Maybe the heads are kind of small. People but those 185s on smaller engines with great results. Mismatched combo? Maybe you should have picked up Richard Holdner's book about all sorts of dyno combinations for the small block.
At least its running better.
 
Something is definitely holding it back. Pete said I should go w/ a Fox TB style set up b/c mine currently has to many bends and I should get a set of Long tubes. I was thinking as well if the heads were kinda small for the combo, Ive been asking around on some other boards to see what people think. This combo should have no problem making 1 HP per cubic inch at the tires. After my last round of mods that I get Im going to start putting together the parts for a fox TB set up and saving up for some long tubes. I'll see where that gets me and if my numbers are still on the lower side of what they should be then I'll start to suspect the heads. The cam is .605/.565 lift and .228/232 duration
 
don't you have to run the throttle body and adapter for the SN95 to clear the shock towers? Or do you have a real short runner intake where you can go without the adapter? I can't see that adapter holding you back that much because it works on plenty of other cars with the same or more HP.
That 605 seems to be alot of lift.
 
You need an adaptor if your running the SN95 set up b/c it does not take a 90 degree bend like the fox set up does into the intake. Its not the adaptor that's the restriction its my C&L Pipe and the bends in it going to the TB and adaptor
 
Went out riding yesterday. Nervous for a while. Its fun to be riding a motorcycle again. Its probably been 10 years since I sold my previous one and as a matter of fact I found a 10 year old receipt in the pocket of my leather jacket. The receipt was dated May of 1999. Yeah its been a long time since I wore that jacket and rode a motorcycle.
Put on about 25 miles yesterday driving around out in the country. Keeping the RPMs down for the first couple of hundred miles but I hear these bikes pull real hard when you get above 4 grand :D.
