Default dyno #'s




I was finally able to get my car to the dyno last thursday. Baseline it was to rich and only made 347rwhp/355ft. lbs. Fixed the a/f ratio and bumped the timing, and got the power up to 360rwhp/371ft. lbs. on a safe tune for daily driving. I guess my estimate of 400rwhp was a "little" high. I'm glad I went with 9.5:1 pistons, I see n2o in my future ...need help on the n2o, I have no idea on what to do but I crave that extra power

N/A 357w with a nice H/C/I swap and all the bolt on, odds and ends needed for the swap. Anyone know of a good n2o kit that'll fit an edelbrockair gap 5.8 intake? I'm nitrous retarded, what are the differences or advantages between a wet kit and a dry kit?

Thanks for the comments, they're good numbers but I'm not happy enough with them. Spray should change that though

Wet kit delivers fuel + nitrous in the proper amounts, dry kit delivers nitrous only and the fuel management system delivers the appropiate amount of fuel for the shot(if it can).

So wet > dry ? My motor barely fits under the stock hood, how much would a nitrous plate raise my intake?

How did you get it to clear a stock hood at all? Do SNs have a bit more space than a Fox?

I wet nitrous plate will raise the carb about 1/2in. Might be tight. I know my 86 couldn't fit a 302 w/ torqer intake under the stock hood with an air cleaner on.
