tips for dynoing

Putting my 95 on the dyno this weekend , what can I do last minute , to get a little bigger number? I'm going to put my GSK in this week , and i'm going to swap in a 0 plate just for the dyno. What else can i do?

On the GSK install , whats an average stud protrusion, I started to put the kit in once , and every time i tried to double check the measurement , it came up different... maybe my digital caliper is too sensitive?

Just make sure it isnt kicking out of lockup in overdrive. Not really too many tricks and tips. on the stud protrusion, I never get a precise measurement, I just take some calipers and get a good average measurement and set the new ones at that. The GSK will help with the #'s some though. Be sure and let us know the numbers. What are your current mods?

mods - Lightly built trans , 191 DV's , 10 plate ( just a hair back from full forward) , WG plugged , custom intake , and a 5" exhaust, oh , and 18* timing)

Any HP guesses?

I'm going to change the FF before i go, any AFC mods I can do?

You could take the foot out of the AFC to be sure you have full fuel. My numbers are in my sig with basically the same basic setup, so surely it will be close.

Your dyno numbers are awful close to mine Eric , I made 322 Hp, and 788 TQ , I will post up the sheet later.

I did it with a 10 plate , 191 dv's, 18* timing , intake , and exhaust. I didn't get to grind my plate more , or install my GSK. I just did not have time for it.
