I would if I can remember where the hell I parked it.
Next plan of action is to install the supercharger from my 81 onto it.
What do you think is in his hand???
I have a set of headers sitting here on the floor now.........my to-do list never appears to get any shorter. Like a big bowl of pasta.
Never-mind the horse tranquilizer in the previous glass

While watching the videos I noticed the difference in AO's times as well and just figured the first run was 4th and the second run was 5th gear. Didn't notice when at the dyno.
The total difference in times (comparing the longer run for AO with mine) would be the difference in final drive ratios. I have a 2.54 diff and AO has a 2.73 so my car would have to spin the drum to a little higher wheel speed in top gear to get to redline, which explains the longer run for my car.
Make sense?

Thanks Tim, that does make sense.
I can't remember if I mentioned, but I gained 10 hp in two WOT runs on the dyno just by autotuning with the ST. I data logged on the third run. This was only changing fueling, I didn't even mess with the ignition timing. I had zero knocks after three pulls, so I could have picked up a little more I'm sure. I didn't bother, since the timing will be headed the other way in certain areas after the rear huffer is installed!!

It's kind of funny that you mention that. The light in the end on my borescope stopped working right before going up to Tim's for the weekend, so I didn't take it along. Now I'm thinking that may have been a good thing.

Note(s) to self:
1. Dropped wrenches in AO's garage stay dropped.
2. Get invited to Hacker's parties.

I'm now take 2 Schlitz a day for medicinal reasons - gave up on Huber Bock (cheap!) and exotic beer. The old ways are the best ways.
Hacker, you're welcome in the Waukesha/Milwaukee area, but based on the photos, you guys may need to stay in the shop. If AO drives up through Chicago he can stop by, I bet he'd ring the "back door" bell?
