Well, today was dyno day for the lspbc, there were a couple v8's there, our '71 and David N.'s '72. Marty's first pull netted 358rwtq at 3500 and 267 rwhp at 4850, power dropped off quickly after 5300, but he pulled it to 6200 :rant: oh well though, it was his first time, he didnt know what he was doing and atleast the car is alright! The second pull netted 358rwtq at 3500 and 274rwhp at 4850, this time he only pulled to 5500. This is with a presumably stock motor with a .030 over rebuild at best, with poston headers, flowmaster American Thunder exhaust with 2 chamber mufflers, and 3.73 posi outback with centerline telstars and 26" tall tires on it. I'm impressed with the numbers to say the least!
Lone Star Performance Buick Club - Texas Buick Club for those that do not know. Hope you all are having fun at the Dyno today! :TU:
we couldnt stay the whole time as marty had to go to arkansas to get my regal, but before we left, we watched Patrick Smith dyno his 4.1 with the 'small' TE(?)63 turbo, it made 492rwhp and 495rwtq!! he isnt done tuning yet and only had the boost set to 21psi, the turbo cannot flow with the motor though. My dad (marty) is getting this motor for his gn after noble, and im getting the motor thats in his gn right now. Patrick is getting a t/a aluminum motor thats almost done, He's hoping for 800hp!
Hey Josh,its too bad you guys had to leave so early.I could have taken Marty for a ride up the road :Brow: hehehe. I took Danny Oviedo up the road in it and left some nice long black marks in front of the shop.His eyes were as big as pie plates!He kept looking for something to hold onto! Greg Kring put his stage 2 car on there and pulled down 775hp and i don't remember how much torque.Sounds like a jet there in that shop.
holy crap batman! 775hp!? i thought i heard them say the record was some pro stock car that had around that hp! it IS too bad we left early but hey, ya gotta do what ya gotta do and he had to get my car! we just cant have an empty spot in the garage like u left us with!
