408 Build Thread
I went to the dyno yesterday to get my carb dialed in and we didn't even touch it! I went there expecting to pull around 350 to the wheels (500 at the crank times 70 percent for drive train loss) and started with 367 on the first pull. We took a little timing out of it and played with some different timing curves. We ended up with a best of 407 hp and 407 ft/lbs. The carb was pretty close through out the whole pull and didn't need any jetting changes at all.
Here's a short video
