STOCKISH · 02-15-2010, 11:28 AM

big dyno day tomorrow.everyone stay tuned, big fred is going to hit the magic 300hp mark!!!!

glock35ipsc · 02-14-2010, 03:08 PM

I did not. They can differ from year to year (there are a few different year ranges in fact), so it's best to get a schematic of the year you are working on the be sure of colors and pin locations.

glock35ipsc · 02-15-2010, 01:18 PM

I'm not making any guesses! I just hope I can turn the drum with my one wheel wonder without spinning the tire!

STOCKISH · 02-15-2010, 01:28 PM

Yeah, that'd stink to get up there and just spin on the drum. I'm sure you'll be just fine. Good luck and dont forget the video.

Butcherboy · 02-15-2010, 11:01 PM

Good luck at the Dyno! Make some NUMBERS!!!

Justin

mcbassin · 02-15-2010, 11:24 PM

You guys are talking about rear wheel HP numbers right? I'm curious to see what it will put down too.

Driveway Dreams · 02-15-2010, 11:51 PM

Go Fred! Bob, what time you runnin' it? You gonna have a camera holder?

79gmc5.3 · 02-16-2010, 07:35 AM

Can't wait to see those #'s!!!!!!!!!!!!! LET"S GO FRED!!!!!!

qu1cks1lver56 · 02-16-2010, 01:24 PM

Man I'm anxious to see the results of that dyno run.

Hope to see some videos.

STOCKISH · 02-16-2010, 03:18 PM

Maybe the numbers were soooo good that he doesnt want to post them and make us all feel bad. Seriously cant wait to see what went down today. Lets go big Fred!!!

glock35ipsc · 02-16-2010, 06:13 PM

Gerald wins the prize!! Whatever that may be......

So..... Baseline was 243.04hp & 283.91lb/ft on the first pulls. The very first pull was a little higher, but everything was cool. HP and TQ dropped as it got up to operating temp.

After a few tweaks and letting it cool down to the same temp as pulls 2 and 3, the best pull was 265.75hp & 304.91lb/ft.

Total gain of 22.71hp and 21 lb.ft!

They were pretty impressed with the initial numbers. They said they have only had a few other stock 5.3's on there before, and they averaged 180-200 hp. So after the first couple of runs, they were pretty shocked.

I'm going to upload some videos after i post this, then I'll post 'em up!

camdNsprayd · 02-16-2010, 06:23 PM

Sweet!!!

glock35ipsc · 02-16-2010, 06:25 PM

Another thing to keep in mind is we are right at 5000' elevation here.

EDIT - If I am doing the math correctly, that comes out to about 315hp at sea level.

79gmc5.3 · 02-16-2010, 06:27 PM

VERY IMPRESSIVE!

That's in line with what my tuner told me. He said these thing are really restricted with all the smog crap on them.

glock35ipsc · 02-16-2010, 07:00 PM

One of the middle pulls. As he started easing into it, it jumped down a gear, so he had to back off and ease into it again.

Doesn't sound too bad! The guy at the end is Chris, board member powell72.

[IMG]http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z147/glock...

121 mph at just over 5000rpm in 3rd gear.

[IMG]http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z147/glock...

The green line is the HP curve from the first pull, and the blue line is the best (last) pull.

79gmc5.3 · 02-16-2010, 07:06 PM

That beast sounds GREAT! Very nice job Bob.
