Car Guys... Step inside Now with video

[blackboltss]

Hey fellas. Having a dyno day at a Shop in Covington. I am meeting up with my fellow Fbody brothers in Slidell at 11, grabbing a bite to eat then heading to the dyno. I know there are a few car guys on here that might want to get cars dynoed $75 for 2 full runs with printouts of your numbers. There are a few prizes for top HP, gonna have burgers and whatnot out there. They are going to have a few Turbo lsx cars that should be pushing out some big numbers. He will have a tuner out there if you choose to use his. We are eating at KY's old town in bicycle shop in Old town Slidell at 11am if you would like to join us. http://www.northshoreautoclinic.com/

March 2ed open at 10(I believe) and will be there until about 6ish

Open to spectators? I may drive my car out there but no desire to dyno it. I like to talk guns and cars though.

 

[blackboltss]

Oh yea... a bunch of guys are just going to hang out and check the cars out. Pretty sure I am going to get dynoed just because Im curious about my numbers. Want to see how much an ls1 looses after 115k on the motor


Our group is going to be there all day until close then head out to the lakefront in Mandeville and hangout there for a bit.

I had my 71 A body dynoed a few years ago @ Futral Motorsports in Walker. But $75 for 2 pulls ok I guess, but I made 10 pulls back then. I had too do a lot of tuning but gained a lot of HP. I love to watch cars on the dyno, but I'm gonna be busy that weekend.

Man I would love to get my Mustang dynoed with the tune I have on it, but I'm playing in a softball tourney that day. When did they get a dyno?

Nothing if it was maintained even half-way decently. In a stock F-body with an A4 you're looking at 285-305 depending on the dyno, with an M6, you're looking at 290-310. BTDT, sold mine at 149K miles and it was still hanging with the new 2010 SS's. Dead-even every time I ran one. Every dyno I ever saw for an LS1 was in the ranges I gave you if the dyno was "normal" and the car was actually stock, unless it had some serious crap wrong with it.

I need to find someone that can dyno an AWD truck. Any ideas?

Where are they located? The pos map shows them at Hood Chevrolet.

Its ok... We know you just don't want to come out and play with the Fbody's..... Mustang owners tend to be scared... hehe I kid I kid!!!

South side of the interstate from Hood, on the service road past the old Mr Fish...or past the hospital

Look into Corr Performance in Kenner. They are the only folks in the state with an AWD dyno.

Looks good bro. Mods besides the tune?

Performance wise just the tune and a cold air intake, maybe the lower control arms if you count traction helping things...the rest are more just helpful things like short throw shifter, braided clutch line, catback exhaust ect

My carb very rich and once I leaned it down some power jumped up nicely. I found this motor does not need race gas or more than 36 degrees timing. Oh and It loved a 1 inch carb spacer, but hated a 2 inch one. The time I spent on the dyno was very educational, some times I thought would work great didn't always work out that way and vice versa. I did manage to put down 422 RWHP from a .060 over 427 BB Chevy.
