Yesterday with open element air cleaner and mild computer tune 164/243
One other mod which probably doesn't contribute to hp gains is a different gear rear end - I replaced the 3.08 with a 3.23 last year.
Pretty much done now with bolt-ons, now I have to work at it :happy055:
22hp and 19 ft tq isnt bad for a few bolt ons...

Just spent the weekend with a bunch of 3rd Gen F-Body guys (Cascade Crew) and put our cars on the rollers to dyno them. My 89's basically stock LO3 motor (305 TBI) put down some respectable numbers. Followed up with a nice cruise through the Columbia Gorge with 16 F-bodies :happy055:

Sounds like a pleasant way to spend your special day.

Thanks, but I still have a few years to go for that one :D I suppose I forgot to put the year in a registration - is that a sign I'm getting old? :p
