Default Finally DYNO numbers and glowing header problem solved

So trailered my car over to the dyno on saturday afternoon, as many people know i have had hell with this car and having glowing red/orange headers,,, which spells out LEAN LEAN LEAN,,,,well put it on the machine, first pull it put down 178RWHP and 221RWTQ, bumped the vacuum FP to 39# from 31# and 2nd pull 282RWHP 315RWTQ or so,,,,
bumped the FP to 40# and 10* timing put down 328RWHP 350RWTQ, 4th pull set timing at 9* and FP at 40# still and put down 329RWHP and 347RWTQ, for pull 5 and 6 bumped timing to 12* and FP to 42# put down 373RWHP 427RWTQ not to bad for a 347 w/ 8.5:1 compression, i only have around 300miles on this car so I readjusted the timing to 9* and 40# FP so i could finish the break in. In @ 1000miles will bump back up to 12-14* and 42# FP with 91octane,, heres the dyno sheet of the 3rd and 4th pull and below is what i have done to the car so far,, what do you guys think?????

Nice numbers. Without the bottle I'm only putting down around 320 RWHP. I can get to about 430 with the spray. I'm hoping to get some numbers like that (without the bottle) once I get my H/C/I swap done this winter.

Damn, that first pull was ugly though, LoL. That had to scare you a bit

yeah it did, only have driven the car about 300miles and to @ 4500RPM the 5000 and 6000RPM pulls were killing me,, glad she held together though going to be a force to be reckoned with on the street in just a few short months!

yeah got a little freaked out about it but when i saw the A/F ratio i knew it was BS and that it was a lot stouter than that, just gotta finish breaking it in then S/C the damned thing, be a pretty sweet street/strip DD that might get me low 11s or in the 10s hopefully, if not can always "BUY" more power

had about 10 other mustang buddies there with me, but to use the machine was $65,, i did not burn a chip and yes my CEL is still on, but not giving me any problems i know of, and only pulling the EGR code b/c its not hooked up,, to burn the chip its about $400-500 with dyno time, chip, and chip guys time
