Here's yesterday's dyno results

[LIL SS]

No way to lock the converter to get true torque is there?

When your stabing it, it seems to be flashing the converter.

I might have to bring the Vega to PG this year if I want to keep up to you

.Great numbers.I agree the dyno is a great tuning tool among other things.

WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!

That's a pretty optimized combo there

I'd like to hook something up like that, but in the BBC variety....one of these days

I'm wondering now if it's time to have the converter restalled lower but without having the ability to test/restall/retest before the season starts I'm too chicken to have it done, I't hate to lose ET.

One thing I will be monitoring is my playback tach. If the converter flashes a bunch more RPM than last year I know I've made improvements.
One of the things I learned was that I was running too much timing, 38 to 40 degrees. It makes it's best numbers with 35 degrees total.

That looks like an awesome engine, rust. I noticed there are no A/F and BSFC numbers on the dyno graphs. Are they just not printed out or didn't you get any?

Unfortunately their flow meters needed calibration so no A/F info. That was disappointing, would have been nice to see how efficiently the engine was using fuel.

Yeah, too bad. I bet you would have seen some fine BSFC numbers with that engine. I'm currently building a 406 similar to yours, so I found this very interesting.
