Going to the dyno tomorrow, guess the number

[KevinB]

There is a local dyno day here in Cincy tomorrow. Lots of LS1's and Mustangs will be there. I'm hoping to put some good numbers down b/c I'll be the only Buick there

The car wieghs 3550 w/ me in it. Best mph was 137.8 (last week.) I'm hoping for 700 at the wheels....it's going to be close according to all my math. If it doesn't hit it, oh well. The highway trip to the dyno will be the most fun anyways:biggrin:

685 :redface:...nah 710

 

[JC'sGN]

I'd say your own guess is bang on....

 

[turbosam6]

My official guess is 681.

 

[GSX-PKV]

My guess is 730

 

[scot w.]

I'll say 720whp... what does the one that is the closest win?

 

[jhanson1750]

714 is the majic number!!! Thats my guess anyway. Good luck Jon Hanson

I'll let you guys know tomorrow afternoon. Just got done with my pre-race check over list (checking the oil and pulling one spark plug. LOL)

I have a question about dyno pulls that has been in the back of my mind for a long time. If you do the pull with a 26" tall tires vs 28" tall tires (3.42 gear assumed) what if any difference would there be in hp/torque results? Thanks

So? how much how much!
How do you like that tranny?

 

[Boost231]

722

 

[waddell87]

698

 

[BandAid]

677

 

[fatride]

...687...

Voltage issues prevented me from making a full pass (10.5 volts). Damn Autozone batteries!

Anyways it did 595 going to 5500 rpm popping and bitching the whole time. The good news is that the 595 was the highest number of the day when I left The owner of the dyno (QWK on here) is giving me a hookup later this week to make a clean run. So check back!


WSLN 6, going with the th400 was a great decision. I wanted to use the 200 originally, it was a HARD choice to make.

595 with a bad battery is promising . Keep us posted !

 

[ijames]

I know I'm late but my calculator say 734 on your best run .

 

[Boost231]

damn batteries

 

[Quick6'n'-K.C.]

Sucks about the battery, what convertor are you running to get that MPH?
