nice! so no contact from the engine builder huh?
Nope. Na Da. I really just want to know what this mill is putting to the ground. It seems real quick.

Ok, this should be good! I'm guessing 350-375 hp at the rear wheels.

Oh wait, it's a Mustang dyno not a Dynojet.
325-350 hp at the wheels

Why the difference?

fun to bang through the gears for sure - the full manual AT is a hoot
- I recently discovered that I am actually losing a little RWHP due to the Ford 9" and 4.10's - or at least, that's what I was told...
9 inch ford is darn near bullet proof but parasitic.fun to bang through the gears for sure - the full manual AT is a hoot

Mustang dynos operate on a different principal which generally reads 10%+ lower HP than the Dynojet. The Mustang adds load beyond the roller weight and is supposed to simulate the real road conditions better...but it is hotly debated across many forums as to which is better (or more accurate).
Truth is that Chassis Dynos are just a measurement tool to compare 'before and after' for modifications or tuning and aren't really meant to give a true measurement of actual HP to the ground. Time slips are better for that. The chassis dyno just gives you another data point for comparison and evaluation.

that's what I have been hearing.. I do have an 8.75... it would be a bunch of work to go back in a car that has been converted.. but it might be worth looking into.

Thank you for the education.

My best guess (without any data to base it on other than cam and carb) is 342 RWHP @ 5500 rpm, 372 lb-ft torque at 4300 rpm.
Best 1/4 mi ET estimate...12.8 sec
I'm just tossing it out to see how close I get...

That would be respectful but im Guessing a little higher on HP and torque. Low 12'sMy best guess (without any data to base it on other than cam and carb) is 342 RWHP @ 5500 rpm, 372 lb-ft torque at 4300 rpm.

So throw out your guess! You've driven it so take a stab at it and see how close you get to the dyno numbers!

Cool! Now lets see if anyone else has a guess and then we will see what the numbers say on Tuesday!
I will have to reschedule if it is raining hard here. Might be. This engine was assembled by Boggess Performance Racing Engines | Facebook and 12grand was put into the engine build, per receipts.Cool! Now lets see if anyone else has a guess and then we will see what the numbers say on Tuesday!
