Went on the Dyno today, basic 5.7L

Start a thread.. Khalid. Absolutely prescribed.. enough .. A new palate to massage,.. dig deep.... and BEST OF LUCK .

Lol I hear you Tim, this is a long-term project that won't get going for quite a while and I plan to drop in a craigslist 5.9 Magnum with a nice hyd. roller cam and mildly ported Mag heads from my old 360 for the time being.

No. ECU cuts power when I touch the clutch above 4,500rpm and 80% throttle. Power is progressively returned, it's actually quite easy on the driveline but the air going through the engine never slows down, so it picks up the next gear quite well.

Dang that's pretty smart, how long of a time-frame are we talking about with that progressive power return? Does it just cut ignition and/or fuel, since you said the air never slows down?
