I really dont see how those numbers are possible...... is that on a 302? Have you had it rebuilt? What compression are you running? NO BOOST RIGHT? Are those the 165 comp heads?
Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing. Not w/ just h/c/i!!!

It's not the rwhp that's raising the alarm; i got 323rwhp & with the stock shortblock; but not drag strip optimzed....
It's the crazy rear wheel torque numbers that have me scratching my bald head......

The dyno was probably incorrectly calibrated, with h/c/i most guys make 60 less hp and alot less tq. Sounds like numbers coming from a car with forced induction.

You Definatly DID NOT make that much RWHP on a mustang dyno. For starters its a mustang dyno not a dynojet. Mustang dyno's use aerodynamics as a factor for the horsepower your making at the wheels. Typicaly people make 30-40 RWHP less than they would on a dynojet.

I made 325 RWHP and 330 RWTQ at 6300 RPMs with heads that have huge 247cc intake runners compared to your 165's, A GT40 intake which is a little restrictive compared to your Track-Heat, and a Z303 cam that has 228/228 duration at 0.050 and 583/583 lift with 1.7 RR's compared to your cam that has 220/220 duration at 0.050 and 498/498 lift. I also was running 11.2.1 Compression with 110 VP race fuel and 10* base timing.

Since then Ive switched to a Trickflow R-Series Intake and a Lunati cam that has 242/252 duration at 0.050 and 560/576 lift.
The car feels like its close to 350 RWHP

Theres no way you made that kind of power on a "MUSTANG" dyno with those parts.
