and no, the dyno is still above ground thanks to rainy season. We hope to fix that after Christmas. It is, however, housed seperately from the rest of Secret Services now, and is far nicer.
I kina like the dyno on the rack! Its nice to be able to get under the car and take a peak without being on your back! But, I can see that for ease and speed of dynoing how an inground unit would be nice.

Larry, you have my utmost respect for your car. I'd just wish you'd spend another 1k to take the ghetto out So whats next, slicks and a trip to BMP?
Im cheap!

Plus, whats considered ghetto (i.e. my $4 boost control valve and $5 cold start injector on a pressure switch) in your world is normal in the Dodge world! And, it works like a champ!

As far as whats next, I think I need to redyno with the slicks on with the car unchanged and see what the power really tops out at with 24 psi boost. I think it would jump up about 30-40 hp. I also need to get some better street tires...maybe those M&H street legal slicks or some drag radials.

And...you never know...maybe I will "splurge" and get that boost controller and AFC you recommended

Correct...same basic architecture but instead of the 8V SOHC head it uses a 16V DOHC head.

The 16V cars also use DIS rather than a distributor, came with the best transmissions Dodge made at the time, and the most advanced ECUs of the time.

My car isnt even in the same league as the K car you are talking about

That K car's last trip to the dyno netted 440 hp and it weighs about 2000-2100 lb. It also uses an automatic at the track (dynoed with a 5 speed for ease) which greatly chops the ET down. The 5 speed Dodges will mph faster, but the autos always ET quicker.
