The next dyno day

So I'm constantly getting asked when the next dyno day is, so lets plan one.

The rest of August is too hot, and Don and I are booked in September, so our next available date is Saturday October 10th. How does that work?

Tim
Troy
Vince
Luis
Andrew
Dave

Sorry if I missed your name, just reply and add it here.

Re: The next dyno day

From my current vantage point it looks like a good enough date. Ill try to keep it open. Got my adjustable FPR the other week so it's good timing (it'll give me some time to install it).

Re: The next dyno day

Although I am a definite maybe, so far that date looks good

Update: Still a maybe, but if I make it, it will NOT be with my Camaro.

Re: The next dyno day

Any date is better than none.

I'll dyno but I don't expect to do many runs, since it is the same motor.

Re: The next dyno day

I'd love to come out, just to see what kind of power my freshly rebuilt stock engine puts out.

Re: The next dyno day

When in Texas you need to take your car to one of the Houston race tracks when they have that Winter "mineshaft" air.

You're in my backyard. I'd love to come to watch or Run my 1981 Firebird. Here's my set up: '81 Pontiac Firebird, 468 cu in Olds, 224/230@1/2", .507" lift 110 LSA Hydraulic Roller cam, 1.6 Roller Rockers, Edlebrock RPM Air Gap manifold, 3.73 positraction, 750 Holly HP, built TH350, 28" tires, Hooker Long-Tube Competition Headers, MSD-6AL-2 & Distributor, 10.1 Forged Pistons, runs 11.3s @ 115 mph in the 1/4 mile, 399 RWHP & 430 RWTQ.
I've made a few changes since these dyno numbers two years ago. I'm hoping for better numbers now as I had a defective MSD 6AL-2 box. - Jerry 310 922-6491 call or text

The post is 7 years old. A lot has happened since then with the people and their cars.

Re: The next dyno day

10/07/2015 Keep waiting by your phone!

Or maybe you can reach Marty McFly back in 1985 if you make the call while accelerating to 88 mph!
Don't forget to charge the flux capacitor.
