    Yes, that's my combo, but I would think flywheel hp is approx 575-585
    Engine ran strong on chassis dyno up to 8200,I'm only trapping 7700

    Hey Ray, one more question if you don't mind. Did you upgrade anything on your AFR 205 heads like the springs and retainers?

    Very cool. Are you using any additives or just plain old 93 octain premium? Real interested cause I'm sitting with a 100 octain need at 11:1 compression and I would like to run pump gas too.

    Just plain old 93 octane, I drive the car alot on the street. I was mixing
    at the track,but Joe Sherman told me to stick to straight 93

    Well, if he told me to run diet coke in mine I would :thumbs2:!! He just might know a thing or two about making HP! That's a pretty good choice to have on speed dial.

    Oh, and your car is just freaking awesome! Good Job.

    Later,
