    Yes you have the Stroker Cam. Reason you may be are a bit lower is two things...one you probably were setup in the hot summer months. Also you do not have the 90MMTB with the matched and ported Intake and the required RETUNE.

    Other HHP\BES 426s with the 90MMTB has also put out some good numbers as we obviously are not going to the same dyno...

    ops, sorry forgot to mention I have the arrington 90mm throttle with the intake port matched. Im hoping its due to summer heat. Here in Houston, we don't have long winter but Im hoping we have a few cooler days to get out to the track and see what its got. I do know when I had just the stage II setup, cooler weather was night and day difference.
    Thanks,
    JT

    Hmmm I just came back from getting my car retuned from the fiasco I went through. Today it was hot and humid around 82 degrees and the dyno run were 13 RWHP difference then previous so again it all dependant upon the weather conditions that day.
    As long as the A/F is safe and it has no issues I could care less about the HP wars\numbers

    For me the telling will be when I go back to the track and see what she does.

    Im with you on that one. I'll wait and see how my jeep compares to other 426s out there and go from there. It is wayyy too much money to be running mid 12s. I have no idea what it will run but I do know what I expect it to run...LOL

    If you have a N/A 426 Jeep and not running 12 flat to low 11's something is wrong!

    HHP Stage II package (including Kook's longtubes, SLP underdrive pulley and 2800 stall TC) going in next week. I'll let you know how it goes.

    I bought the cam, heads, intake and torque converter second hand so got a really good deal.

    Nice! Good luck and keep us informed. I think you'll be happy especially after some miles on her and a GOOD tune.

    Thanks. Mao is doing the install so I trust it will go well. I've already got a base Diablo tune for the setup from SVS R&D in Sacramento. I'll be driving it straight to their place after the install for CMR dyno tuning. Very excited!!!

    I'm still on street tires so things will be even more touch and go from a standstill. VRRRRRRRRSSSSSCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ... or something like that

    First time I've had access to computer. I'm on 290 and fairbanks N. Houston. Apparently there is a city wide curfew at 9pm. I tell you, with these cooler nights, its making me wanna get some test runs in... Low humidity and 60 degrees tonight - could be some tire laying times!!!
