I think you overestimate drivetrain loss.. lol

My old combo made 488/474 on the chassis dyno from a 560hp/535tq 402...

:yes:

Oh, you know I will.. with video.. :yes:

Any bets? 650/613 on the engine dyno will translate to what with drivetrain loss, air intake, exhaust, etc...

My guess.. 580/550

560/530

That's less than 13%. Are you sure you didn't put a better tune on the 402 in the car? Will the new magnum effect the outcome? I factored in no accessories. I hope I'm dead wrong.

Not that I know of.. in any event we should know within the next week.. remember how lite my drivetrain is .. 15 lb flywheel, lite metal clutch, alum DS, lightened rear gears, no parking brake drum weight.. etc.

I'll throw in my guess.
My guess.. 575/560. GOOD LUCK STEVE!!!:thumbsup:

Today was a good day.. the fans are hooked up and working (thanks Chris) and there are ZERO leaks from the engine, trans or any of the new brake lines.

Car starts, and somewhat idles but the current tune is FUBAR'd and needs some lovin'

Good oil pressure, I have mech gauges on the front oil system. It's 50psi at cold idle going in and 48psi coming out. I imagine the drop is minor resistance in the Canton oil t-stat. System holds about 8 quarts now.

Here are some shots.. did a lot of things I had wanted to do like clean up wiring.. heat shield other wires and install some XRP insulation on the fuel line were it goes over the header. The whole underside was recoated with Wurth SKS Stoneguard and most stuff was re-powder coated. I didn't bother re-coating the exhaust system since it just ends up getting messed up.

Dyno tune is set for Thursday afternoon at Westech Performance. I cleaned my front wheels and found that they are both missing their wheel weights, for how long I don't know but they both have small flat spots. I will most likely be moving to a 285 front tire anyways.

Now to pull the front seats to install my new RaceQuip harness' and possibly plumb in my halon fire system.
