Great day at the dyno!

Do you have a graph with torque on it?

Also do you remember you initial timing number and at what rpm the curve is in?

I’m not surprised with those heads at your timing numbers. Just curious about the shape of the curve.

I did not get a torque curve, the dyno guy and I were shooting for best power (his recommendation). I'd start the dyno run rolling in 3rd gear at ~3000, he'd signal me to floor it, RPM shot up from a loose converter, my tach then was at ~4000 for a couple of seconds and then the RPMs climbed to 6000 rpms. The run lasted about 10 seconds.

Initial timing was at 35° BTC and total timing is in by 3500. I don't lock out the distributor for the ease of starting the car.
