Tomorrow morning I should be at the dyno day up here in Lubbock at Tx Speed. Not sure what type of dyno they have. I'll get 3 runs though. I know I probably haven't gained much at all over stock with the simple bolt on stuff I have, but with my mileage considered and my God awful 1/4 time (all though a hot day), what should I expect??? Anyone wanna guess and see if they get it right? :D

1995 LT1 A4 (3.07)

130k miles

MSD 6A (w/little cooling fan by it, doesn't matter, just wanted to add lol)
Taylor wires, NGK plugs
Meziere electric pump
3" Tri-Flo cat-back (minus resonator)
RandomTech catalytic converters
Open-lid K&N
TB bypass (kind of irrelevant :lol: )
160 powerstat (probably not helping since I have no computer/fan mods)
maybe few other simple parts

I also recently replaced the timing chain, O2 simms, and a couple other parts if those matter.

1/4 mile time was a 14.4@96 mph, BUT, on a 95+ degree day, after my first two runs, temperature outside was around 98-99 with San Antonio,Tx humidity and it was the first time to the track in the Vette. Most my friends were running anywhere from .5 - 1.5 slow that day.

I'm praying for 265 rwhp :blueangel: :D

You never know, it may surprise ya!!

253

I think I may have met you one night at rivercity. You said you had just gotten the car. I have a maroon 94. I think it was back in june? My car is being tuned on the dyno and should be done tomorrow. Im guessing around 250rwhp if its a dynojet for your combo.

Dan Parker '96

I'm completely interested in what you pull. I never got to dyno my '96 LT1 in stock form before doing an LT4/Hotcam conversion.

Through the stock manifolds right now I've done 316RWHP, converter unlocked. Locked up would add about 10RWHP. *Done on a Dynojet.

Let us know how it turns out.

257.4 :leaving:

BowTieBlood

Yea I believe so, we were trying to run with each other and that stupid black car wouldn't move up so you had to race before me :rolleyes: Terrible day at the track for everyone :yesnod: I think I'm a little quicker now than then too, feels a lot better anyway.

Dan, I sure will, I'll try to post tomorrow night, I'll post it in here and in another thread for those interested in simple mods on an LT1. I know I always like to hear dyno results that are proven around here. :cheers:

MTVette

With a 92 LT1 and similar minor mods, I got 273 RWHP and 303 RWTQ. YMMV.

C10 JDR

So, - What is the answer????

MrNuke

So what was the Dyno?

Going by your shear Track MPH I'd say under 250HP, but I do not know your track DA. Much heat and humidity can add about 2-3 tenths to an ET and reduce 2-3Mph, but even then.
Something is amiss with that car of yours. Bone stock LT1's should be in the mid 13's at 101+MPH...

How'd you do?

biggrizzly

My Stock (Only a cut lid and K&N) 94 Lt-1, did 249 RWHP before the tune-up.
It runs much better now and I plan to Dyno again next month on DynoDay.

bstirn

My guess 262 RWHP And most all stock LT1 Autos 13.8 to 14.2 from 98 mph to 102 Depends on Driver and Car & conditions

BowTieBlood

Sorry for slow reply...

I posted it in another thread when I got the results...

They were:

263.1 max rwhp and 296.5 max rwtq

So like 321 and 362 if you count in 18% drivetrain loss, of course I have no idea what my loss actually is, but I do have 130k miles on the car, and was leaking tranny fluid all over the dyno :rolleyes:

BowTieBlood

Yea I figured under 250 as well, but I was proven wrong, shows how much 95+ degree days can screw ETs :yesnod:

Most the guys out there figure I can run mid-high 13s on any other day :cheers:

We'll have to wait and see.

MrNuke

Cool i'm glad your car is making good power then. In teh heat cars here on the east coast run slower too, but usually not more than a few tenths worse.
Try some Drag radials and some cold or non humid weather and get that low 13 y/ high 12 you should be getting. What elevation does your track have? That's plays into it a lot aswell.

BowTieBlood

Hmmm, I'm not sure exactly, it'd be the same elevation as San Antonio (where the track is), or Austin if that's easier to find.
