Numbers - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Andy4639 · 02-07-2014, 08:12 PM

Well the truck is done. Everything is working as it should and the Dino is done. I'm a little disappointed in the final numbers but I have a good running truck. It's not a race truck anyway.

MAX Torque at rear wheels =304.94
Max Horse Power @ rear wheels = 280.00
I'm a little disappointed but not that bad I guess for a stock motor.

Bruce says the transmission is responsible for the loss at the wheels.

He also had a car on the machine this morning to loss a drive shaft and he was probably a little hesitant to pull it really hard. Maybe!

Hmmmm.

Stock lq4 305-320ish

The 80e takes a bit of power to turn, and depending what wheels/tires I can see some drivetrain loss. I see #'s in excess of 17-20% of DTL with them, which would be approx 64 hp.

stock 320chp - DTL @64 = 256 rwhp
Your 280 rwhp + 64hp DTL = 344chp.

So your tune and emissions removal etc, and headers netted anywhere from 24-50hp, depending on how much fudge room the numbers have. Was it a mustang dyno or a dynojet?

Andy4639 · 02-07-2014, 09:02 PM

The dino is a Dino jet according to the printout. He doesn't have a engine RPM on the sheet though.
I have 28" over all tires on the back.

mud.man.rj · 02-07-2014, 09:19 PM

Still overall you have an easy 300hp plus so nice for a stock build.

**dec010974** · 02-07-2014, 09:24 PM

Well Andy4639, I think it's good considering what u have invested. What tranny are u using, air intake used, exhaust manifolds, size of exhaust tubes? There are many variables involved when one dyno tuning a vehicle. Be happy. You're on the road, unlike me and ur driving a cool hot rod. If your so unhappy with it, we can always trade. Enjoy.

**dec010974** · 02-07-2014, 09:29 PM

As it stands, I having problems with my dbw set up. I'm thinking lq4 carb.

I'd go DBC before I did that if I were you.

Your numbers seem pretty solid to me Andy. Nice.

Andy4639 · 02-07-2014, 09:49 PM

Not complaing a bit guys. I was just hoping for a little more than that. I'm happy. The truck does just fine. Now I can start figuring out what to do next to it!
I have a set of these sitting in the garage waiting to install and I have to pull the carpet out to finish the corner 6x9 speakers and hush matting on the floor.

DYNO-jet

Not

DINO-saur

that sh!t will drive me batty

Andy4639 · 02-08-2014, 07:32 AM

Correct it's a Dyno Jet but not the AWD. The Dino was general speaking which was out of not knowing it was spelled Dyno.

**Hart_Rod** · 02-08-2014, 11:31 AM

Forget the numbers, how does it feel? I'm guessing way stronger than before. Later on you can swap the cam out and probably gain a 100 or so ponies. Work the bugs out and enjoy it, it has a lot more in it,

That is exactly what I plan to do. I will be talking a bunch to the guy's on the Power Tour this year about more power.

littlevictories · 02-08-2014, 12:40 PM

shoooooot, 280/300 at the wheels is fantastic atmo

can't wait to get mine done.

pwradder · 02-08-2014, 08:38 PM

just an fyi, i had a 4x4 2000 sierra with a 5.3 and an auto that put down 246 rwhp and 277 ftlbs on a dynojet with a tune and spectre cai- so if it's all stock those aren't bad numbers, congrats!

Well if I could find one say for less than $3K I might would conceder it but right now I'm going to enjoy it like it is.
I got to get the other half happy again before a major buy.

, totally understand....but the right cam and dual valve springs will net you 100+ HP for less than $700.....

This will be my next upgrade more than likely. This is what I was going to ask about from the vendors on the Power Tour about. Get some numbers and idea's from them while seeing their products in person.
