Jeff, it was really nice to meet you at HRPT. Sorry that I couldn't run with you guys the next day, the rain kept me from replacing that fuel pump in a timely manner. Hopefully we will get another chance to have the Blazers pose together.

The clunker was definitely a hit at Automotion a few weeks ago:

Good to meet you too! Would have been fun running with another Blazer for sure. You probably wouldn't have liked our pace...we definitely took our time getting to St. Louis. lol.

My buddy just picked up a Mustang MD-500 dyno and opened a dyno shop in here town. We had a dyno day on saturday, so I threw it back on the rollers and leaned on it a bit more.

Made 625 hp / 630 tq at 14 lbs of boost. Nailed it and kept it pinned till the rev limiter at 6900. lol. I'm pretty happy with that. Made 15 more hp that a supercharged Viper that made 720 hp at a dyno across town.

Yea it's a lot of fun. I must have the suspension and tire combo dialed in though, because she hooks and books.

One more vid. These are actually the first few pulls. It got all rowdy and tagged the spark cut limiter....had it in manual tap shift mode, and didn't realize it was in 1st gear, not 3rd. lol. Gave the audience a good scare with some flames out the downpipe and wastegate dump.
:devil:

Hit the dyno again last night. Decided to finally turn up the wick a bit. Ended up at 23 lbs of boost and soft timing.

Ridiculous. It just ignites the 305 M/T drag radials when the boost hits. lol.

Oh yea! Was still making huge gains for every bit of boost and timing I threw at it. I think it has 1000 rwhp in it. Didn't feel like pushing that far last night. It was up 200 hp and 300 ft-lb from the last time I dyno'd...lol
