While the tranny was out being rebuilt, I had the opportunity to get my engine dyno tested!
The solid line represents the base line pull. Right off the bat we found something wrong! The secondaries were not opening at all! peak power was 273hp @ 5000rpm and 346 ft/lbs at 2500rpm. So after we got the secondaries working and put some timing in it we bumped it to 330hp @ 5200rmp and 369 ft/lbs at 4500rpm. It picked up nearly 60hp and 20 ft/lbs! The graph shows the base line pull and the final pull.
We were a little curious as to what the nitrous was really doing, so we hooked it up and made a pull! The difference was amazing! The nitrous took it from 330hp to 434hp. A little less than projected but im not complaining! The torque jumped from 369 ft/lbs to 529 ft/lbs! I nearly fell to the floor!
Once the car was back together, I couldnt wait to get it to the track! I havent taken it to the quarter mile since its been done but I went to a local eighth mile to see what it would do!
This is a previous time slip from the quarter mile at Fontana. It's a little embarassing but whatever! Here is a slip from the eighth mile at Perris. More than three tenths faster and nearly 3mph faster as well! The car feels so much different, its amazing! I cant wait to get it back to Fontana and see what it does!I took my car to the track again this week. I got the secondaries working properly, now the car doesnt fall on its face! the best run this week was 8.96 at 77mph. Now it was time for the nitrous! ! ! 8.11 seconds at 93mph! ! ! Not bad for a little 350, eh?!?!?!?
