dyno numbers inside

dynoed my 91 today and put down 227 hp and 357 lb ft at the wheels. TPI torque:hail: :hail:

also what would porting and polishing my upper and lower intake as well as adding a set of AS&M siamesed LTRs do for me?

Those are some big tq #s. I think mine only did about 305 to the wheels before the intake setup and a few other things. And I think 210 hp. Yeah I agree :hail: tpi torque!!!

dont have the dyno graph on the computer, but ill see what i can do. im lookin at getting a new intake and have decided on 2 setups.

1. a buddy has a 91 upper and lower TPI intake that he said he would port and polish as well as port match them to a set of AS&M siamesed LTRs.

or

2. get a holley stealth ram and install that.

this engine prolly isnt gonna ever have anything internal done to it no cam, no heads or anything like that. i just want the best setup for my engine that might eventually have a set of headers at most. i would like to see 13s with this car before i sell it to go LS1 4th gen.

I dyno'd my 92 Formula WS6 2 weeks ago, and pulled 240 hp at the wheels and 298 ft lbs of torque. We also did a 1/4 mile pull and it went 13.90 @ 101.3 mph. How'd you get the torque so high? My mods are: 52MM throttle body with air foil, edlebrock shorties w/ Flowtech racing Afterburner muffler (soon to be replaced by Hooker long tubes w/ Magnaflow exhaust) Richmond 3:73 ring and pinion, TPIS level 3 prom, and a K&N.

Since I dyno'd I've added a March pulley kit, and am thinking really hard about replacing the TPI with the TPIS Miniram intake. Thoughts??

Where in graph was this peak number? It could be a spike from the converter. I'm guessing "vette stall" means you also have a converter from a vette. Don't know much about those, but higher stall converters tend to spike the graph when they flash up, then after that spike the tq curve is more realistic. But this spike is usually a pretty big number generated by the converters tq multiplication, and not engine power.
Again, don't know if this is the case, just throwing out ideas for those asking why its so high.
