Dyno tuned 305 TBI on the gas

The colors of the runs got swapped between me making both graphs. Blue is the same, but red and green are swapped. Go off of the run names in the header.


Red pull was NA before tune/green on afr graph
Blue is NA after tune/
Green is 150 shot/red on afr graph

What is really amazing is how much tq and power it picked up in the power band. In one section it picked up over 75 ftlbs NA

Looks like he had the air/fuel ratio and the timing in the chip perfected on the dyno.

He is not all that far off from my 305. It had headers, stock cam, stock swirl ports, stock intake, stock TBI unit.

176 RWHP @ 4,000
262 RWTQ @ 2,300

Great case for why you need to tune. The original HP/TQ graphs are a mess.

Another thing of note is that you might pick up a litte more power by running slightly richer. Look how the torque curve has an uptick when the AFR is richer.

Incase anyone didn't know right click and view image to see a clear picture. (I need to reset my photo size)

Those are petty good #'s for a stock heads and cam. Was that with a good tune or stock tune?
