I'm with Charlie....it's the having that counts.
Sometimes Sedalia feels like a 1,000 acres; having to drive 10 miles for a bathroom.

I might have a buddy of mine coming up from down here to dyno with us. He is still debating it but I'm trying to push him to come. He's gonna be one of those last minute add on's if he does come.

I think I've decided on my next round of mods which is upgrade my turbo to a SPS62 which includes going to a 71mm wheel instead of the 68mm or so that's on there now and a larger shaft on it, then save up for the billet parts, o-ring the head, then twins. Or twins and then o-ring. I definately need to get more air into my engine and industrial said that I'd see enough of an improvement going to a super phat shaft to warrant the extra cost of upgrading mine.

I would say a full rebuilt tranny, with a stronger torque converter is worth 20-30 over stock!
So I'll say 220/360??

With EZ only: 252/579

With EZ and RV275's: 304/718

......and mine is a 5 spd.

I think Rowland is pretty close on HP but a little low on Trq.

EZ is listed at 60hp/160ft-lbs, so with a non slipping tranny, that would put Wayne @ 192hp/419????

Guess we just have to wait & see.

I don't think it "really" puts out 60 hp. With his intake and built tranny, I think he'll get close to factory rated hp.

Well this is now the 2nd morning in a row I've watched the sun come up. Yesterday it was because I was bs'ing with a buddy till 6:45 and now it was because I just got home from cleaning the ceiling tile and covering up the grid work for a local restaurant. Started the job at 11pm and had 4 people working non stop for 7 hours to finish it. Needless to say I'm tired.

Don't change your pattern too much...you'll need to be use to it for Saturday morning.
