    Engine dyno sessions start on Tuesday. May take 2-3 days of engine dyno tuning. Than I have to get out of the way for the NHRA Prostock team that's going after me.

    Oh - and I've had some other life changes as well.

    Thanks. Now let's see if it runs as good as it looks. I'm expecting about 8.50 at 160 mph.

    After two months of delays, the initial numbers are in:

    Peak Horsepower: 918 HP at 6,700 RPM
    Peak Torque: 792 Ft-Lbs at 5,600 RPM

    Planning to launch on the torque converter at 5900 RPM where I'll have 877 HP and 781 Ft-Lbs of torque.

    Shift at maybe 7,000 rpm, where I'll have 908 HP and 681 Ft-Lbs.

    In 2nd gear should wind out to about 7,500 rpm, where I still have 890 HP and 623 Ft-Lbs of torque.

    HP is over 890 from 6200 to 7500 rpm.

    Should run 8.35 at 160 in a perfect world.
