It's an 850HO from AED Performance. I've had to change pretty much everything.

I enjoy the tweaking and tuning aspect. I still want to chassis dyno the car this year.

Ron, I can't believe it but I don't have a decent idle video. I use an elph for video and the sound sucks.

..........and I want to see those dyno charts!

Tuning carbs is good sport, I used to run side draft Weber's on a car I auto-X'd and they were fun even though they changed wth the barometer.

Have a 650 Speed Demon on my '69 with BG's mistake baseplate, I'm changing to something, possibly a 770 Avenger or ?

Me too.. I chassis dynoed the previous engine and it made 491hp/497 ftlbs. It should make in the +or- 550 rwhp/rwtq range if the tune is dead nuts. That is my primary reason for wanting to chassis dyno.

When I drove the car with the vacuum gauge, I found out that I had 2-2.5 inches of vacuum at wot. I almost pulled the trigger on a Pro Systems HP 1000 due to all the positive feedback. At the end of the day, I decided not to chance starting over from scratch on a tune. Since then I found that my throttle cable had stretched and I was getting 15/16th throttle. I'd love to go injected but that ain't happening.

550 out back should be adequate.

Fast EZ EFI looks tempting but efi is getting better and less expensive, I'll be an observer a little longer.

The 600hp bridge takes out quite a few economical options. For under 600hp, EZ Efi seems like a great option.
