Hung out at Alternative Auto this morning... I haven't had the car on the dyno since I switched out the tires and wheels... I wanted to see if the smaller tires made a difference.... well they didn't change the HP at all but it appears to have increased the Torque. Lidio sprayed a little earlier than he has in the past... but between the tires and the early spray... well take a look at the dyno sheet!!! LOL!

Also.. I've probably made close to 30 passes at the track and a dozen pulls on the dyno... some 75HP and some 100HP shots... Now I've notice a few of the GT guys have burned up their spark plugs... which made me a tad nervous... so we pulled a plug out of my car... The spark plug looked perfectly normal... no signs of burning what so ever! Now I realize we only pulled one plug (we were pressed for time today)... but that one plug looked great considering how many bottles I've run through! LOL! Lidio also noticed that the plugs in our V6's are actually a colder plug than the GTs... hmmmmm... I'm still running the stock gapping on the plugs... We'll probably pull all the plugs shortly and gap them better for the N20...

Ok... here' s today's sheet! MSP, look at how much TQ I make compared to the HP now!!! LOL! You were SO RIGHT!!!

WOW!!! I told you man!! All that for just the 100Shot of Nitrous!! I completely understand what the SOHC 4.0 desires, and its TQ!!

So feel comfortable about the Shelby V6.. Vortech will have to actually de-tune the car to keep it from being really fast. Which is good for whoever buys the car, because they will be able to make tremendous gains on a good tune...

Nice Job Scming!! You da man!! I'm off to work, so please keep up the excitement! LOL!

Awesome dyno. Any reason why you stopped at 5400 rpm? It looks like it she was still making good power.

That would be 452Ft. Lbs. of TQ @ the Crank, trying desperately to twist and mash together the spiders contained inside of the 7.5 axle unsuccessfully!!
