Dyno Results
#31
ok, i can say i had the cams installed and tuned at Houston Performance.
my numbers were higher than that, but just like you, my TQ was alot lower than my HP. wish i had the chart here at work, i'll take a pic and post the dyno results when i get home...
personally, after i get blown , i'm going to take it to Fastlane to get tuned... my neighboor is great friends with everyone there, and the tuner does an outstanding job. never heard anything but good about them. PM me if you needs some more info.

Uhh that isnt how you find out how much stall you have Lol. The one thing people misunderstand the most about torque converters is stall speed. Many think that if they have a converter rated at 2,500 rpm, the car will rev up to that rpm and then take off. That’s not how it works. Stall speed is a function of engine rpm—the more torque your engine makes, the higher the rpm the converter will stall, or lock up at, and transfer that torque to the transmission.There are two types of stall speed—foot brake stall and flash stall. Foot brake stall (also called true stall) is the maximum rpm that can be achieved with the transmission in gear, the brakes locked, and the engine at full throttle. The rpm reached before the vehicle moves is the true stall speed of the converter. The problem with foot brake stall is that you will end up overpowering the brakes and suspension before you reach the converter’s stall speed. The only way to really measure true stall is by using a trans-brake. This will keep the vehicle from moving, allowing the converter to absorb 100 percent of the engine’s torque.
Your thinking to deep i know what i need and thats a SIX SPEED. So when your about to race what does your car stall at? i'm talking logic and what the car actually stalls @ when im going to race. now does your car actually stall at 2,500. NO it doesn't. We are talking reality not what if's.
On a better note. I did some racing over the weekend and found that the car performs better then the numbers read. Against a simi stock 03 cobra he gave me the jump and i put at least a car and half on him then he would pull a car on me then we would brake even.
