Lol. My wife and I are some of the youngest homeowners in our neighborhood (it used to be a 55+ place about 10 years ago). I drive 28mph down the road only to have people 3 times my age (I'm 28 ) ride my ass. I love it
. Except they're not going to soccer practice, they're going to the pharmacy or Bingo.
I just got back from Race Related, running my car over there on that dyno. This is the dyno that I ran on originally and made 427/332. Now I'm back with smaller cams and some sheets from a small-roller Dynojet. Ultimately, I came out at 420/332, which is exactly what I expected. The dyno plots are ludicrously similar as far as midband numbers and the shape of the curve. On the small roller I made 417/223, but the torque curves were more like 15 apart instead of the 9 that the peak numbers show. Now everything is right with the world. The 7whp that I lost from last year is the result of the smaller duration cams (272ex, vs 264ex. 264in on both), and the resulting plots show a textbook example.
Hooray the car is perfect!
