Well I finally got around to dynoing the old bird, went to the same place as mmdx228 (brandon with the white caprice with the 4.3) which uses a mustang dyno. The old girl put down 311hp and 307 ft/lbs, really odd I know. The 311 came on a hump on the top end of the pull after a dip at about 5600, think it was like 296 or something before the dip. Other than that the curves look to be the norm, just the torque isn't as high as it should be I think. I'll post a pic of the print out and the short shitty video I took, man I knew my car made some noise, but damn, didn't know it was that damn loud. Also they did hook up a wideband and it's a little on the rich side. Bounced from high 12's to low 13's during most of the pull, cept for the last 600 or so rpms then it was REALLY fat, went as bad as 11.8 at one point. Seemed like it was running out air, but not fuel, that's ok, it'll be fixed soon:devil:
edit: I don't think it did too bad for a 168k motor.

Nice numbers for sure! Im still impressed with the power a high mileage LT1 puts out with a few bolt ons and a tune.

come on Phil, you dont really want a 169k mile LT1, do you? And to the rest of you, sorry I haven't gotten the dyno chart up or the video, I finally have internet back again so it'll be soon, now if only I can remember where the graph is.

A little low on tq but for the mileage I think that hp is pretty good.

Not bad #s i feel it should be a bit higher in the TQ area but should run stout!
