Default RE: HP numbers

Man, i have a 92 gt vert. with an aod. Is a 306 with 9.7:1 compression, edelbrock performer heads, e - 303 cam, forged pistons, hardened pushrods, 1.6 rr, removed smog pump, electric fan, msd distributor and coil, I thought that once i got my edelbrock rpm intake, throttle body, and mass air i was going to be able to make 300rwhp and get into the hight 12's. Crap!! life is now a little more gloomy.

Yeah 30lb injectors are a bit much unless your gonna add spray. The intake is going to hold him back for sure versus using a trickflow intake. Trick flows intakes are designed to work great with each other, the ports match up nearly perfect compared to using a different intake with their heads (says Triackflow anyway).

But it might just be the dyno, or the car might have been hot, there could be a lot of things to explain lower than normal numbers. I dynoed my car in Idaho and was at about 270rwhp, got down to Georgia to have a chip made did a before dyno and it was right around 300rwhp. Different climates, elevations, lots of things...coulda just been the dyno too
