Not every one can be cool enough to have big twins AND the big pump
Why don’t we go back to 2005. I did 431hp fuel only with a single HX/40/16 without a cam and I had a 12mm pump on. Heck go back to 2004 I put down 425hp fuel only with a single turbo, stock head, stock cam, and a 12mm pump. Look I’m not saying it is bad, but your acting like its some great feat or something. It is respectable and I don’t want to take anything away from you. You have worked really hard to get where you are at, but your not reinventing the wheel. Before you even got in the game people were making this kind of power. You have it easy compared to most everyone else. You knew exactly what parts it would take to make that kind of power. Back then it was all just an experiment.

I also run somewhere around 27 degrees of timing.

I have my old intercooler which has a small pin hole in it if you want it. I just dont think it is going to make up the difference.

Hey I'm sorry I missed your call. I am working Graveyard so I sleep during the day. I left a message for you at your work.

I think Stomp is getting nervous. Or is it just his normal attitude?

If I was nervous I would go down to the shop and start working on my pickup. The last few HP are always going to be the hardest to get.

This is pretty normal for me. Maybe that’s why I don’t have all that many friends on here. When I go back and read some of my older posts I realize that I wouldn’t even want to be friends with me. I don’t know what gets me so riled up.

Jason is one of the few people that have seen me get out of line when I have been drinking. I’m just glad that he didn’t have his camera with him.

congrats on the #,s . my experience on different dyno,s has been the mustung is the hardest to get hi numbers. i feel it is more accurate than others. i bet you would have done better on a superflow or dynojet or a dynocom. i once put down 420 on a dynocom .

STOMP and I are talking about a same-day shootout with both our trucks....and we'll do it without the famous "West Coast Correction"

As for my fuel-only numbers, you can't imagine how demoralizing it was to put down 356 with a 14mm head like I did before the lockup trans and timing....especially in a magazine for the whole world to view. I know 447 isn't a World-beater, but it makes me feel a whole lot better than the 356, a number that a manual trans truck could probably put down with POD's.

You think that's demoralizing? I made 496 rwhp with an LB7 running GT42/55 twins, twin 120% CP3's, motor built to hold the power, and an $11K transmission at TS during the busiest part of the day. The scream from the chargers drew an even bigger crowd. Might as well have been on PayPerView. There were more than a few chuckles when the numbers came up on the big screen. Dang EFILive tuning...it took me a week to figure out what I had done wrong in the fuel mapping tables.
