Today was dyno day.. my guess (what I hoped for) was 650/620.. turned out to be a decent guess.
While the cam we're running is large compared to other LS cams it's not that big considering the displacement of the engine. COMP said I could pick up a bunch of tq/hp by moving to a more aggressive 112 LSA, but drivability and idle would suffer.
Since I don't want too much power and I want to keep my street friendly drivability we settled on a 114 LSA.
Fired right up.. idle was good and after some break in time Westech made some pulls and adjusted the A/F..
Best pull was 650 hp and 613 tq.. but the best part is that even down at 3500 rpm it's already making 550 lb/ft. The torque peeks at around 4600 and is still well over 500 up at 6500. That's the kind of torque curve I was looking for - flat and a bit weighted to the bottom/midrange area.
Friday we start installing.. this engine should serve me well while I CAREFULLY build my RHS blocked / Mast Motorsport headed 460 engine.
Ready to rumble:
Corrected graph: (correction factor was 1.042ish)
