91 ZR-1 Dyno Results

[YESZREE]

YESZREE, Give me un update... was your loss of power do to the collapsing air duct? Did you get the Coplon one already?
I'm filling up my bottle just in case you come back TOO Srong...

I have not recieved the air duct. Unless it comes tomorrow I'm going to drive my Valkryie to the track. How would you like to have a big fat jap bike bake that ZO6?:eyerole

363 rwhp@ 5600 rpm and 363 ft. lbs.

332 rwhp@5700 rpm and 360 ft. lbs.

323 rwhp @5800 rpm and 357 ft. lbs.

I don't trust the Breathless Mustang dyno - it give suspect numbers. Take a look at your numbers - if 363 rwhp = 363 ft. lbs, then how can 332 rwhp = 360 ft. lbs? This makes absolutely no sense.

I believe that your car is strong - but do yourself a favor and get it dynoed on a Dynojet 248B - then you'll be able to compare more accurately to others when they tell you their numbers.

No bashing your ride - you'll likely pull stronger with the coplon duct as well!!!

I abusolutely agree. The only thing that dyno did was to show me about the air duct. I've just recieved it and I'll try again. There is a performance shop here in Tampa that has the dyno you speak of. There will also be the same dyno at The Gathering.

Later, Ed

YESZREE,

What shop do you take your Z to in Tampa?

You won't believe it when I tell you!

It's one of the franchise Insty-Tune / Oil change centers. Told You!!!

There is an Insty-Tune on Dale Mabry Hwy. and the owner (who works there) has about as much Vette experiance as you can get. This guy (Andreh) is a gem! He helped me prepare my 78 Pace Car for NCRS Top Flight last month, is the crew chief on my Super Gas car and recently pulled my plenum and replaced all of the vacuum lines with silicone products and also works on my Harley!

He's honest and is proving to be a good friend as a bonus!

Well, I do believe you, because I doubt you'd lie about it, but that IS quite surprising.
