It is a touch low, but did you get to tune it? It is entirely possible that adjusting the timing and FP could add another 10rwhp or more.

no i didnt tune, was going to wait until i got new heads and intake. i figure it wasnt worth it yet. i did pull the plugs friday to put in some new ones. they had white tips? the car doesnt run hot, so i was guessing that the timing might be off. (anyone in the atl wanna help set my timing, i dont have a light)

also it was my 1st time doing a dyno run and thought they would run it. i drove the car as i would in the street. well on my last one he told me that i needed to just floor it. i didnt know, it was all new to me. i had a good time and learned a lil.

That's odd that they let you drive. Anderson wouldn't even let me be in the dyno cell when they ran mine. I had to step outside the door and peek in. They let me do the tuning though

you need a new motor STAT....just grab an junkyard shortblock, put in a 306 rotating assembly, and put the h/c/i u got on that....**** the motor u've got now

as for suspect, those numbers seem to be about right.....when you get h/c/i on there, and actually get a tune, and a chip burned you'll be in great shape

i just thought it was weird, good torque numbers and very low horsepower. of course some of the newer cars were all close to 300hp and 300t. even my buddys 306 made about the same torque, but 60-70 more hp.

Once you open it up a little more the TQ will drop off down low and horsepower will pick up up top.

Yeah, Anderson is strict about their dyno runs (for safety reasons I am sure), but when my friend and I went to dyno his car, they also made us stay outside and look.

Suspect, I think those numbers are pretty good considering it probably is pretty hot and humid in Georgia.

Matt, are you sure you don't have a V-6 in that car? Those numbers are comparable to that of a sixer. Time for a 306 or crate motor.

engine is fine, i'm 99% sure its a bad fuel pump. Compression test came out fine, everything i've checked is working great.

Probably for insurance reasons, not safety.

Matthiasj: What kind of dyno did you go to? (dynojet / mustang / etc.)

An intake would help...I had the same mods except LTs/Prochmbr....with a Tmoss ported stock lower I hit 232RWHP...Hella hit for 115.00
Good to have a baseline though...
