Got the car on the mustang dyno and got the tune ironed out. The intake manifold/throttle body is now a restriction as we watched the manifold pressure drop more and more as the rpm increased on the runs.
Run before smoothing was 247 whp 268 tq, it's got a good bit of torque for a little V6. Up from 169 whp and 184 tq when it was mostly stock. Fuel pump died a few days after this, dodged a bullet there. Almost done with the E85 system. The engine did what a stock LS1 did on the same dyno. She's a cruel mistress. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqEeV_XYktY (IMG:http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a141/WarShrike/Dyno%20Jan%202017_zpsf9qc0voo.png) This post has been edited by WarShrike: Mar 27 2017, 12:34 AM |

Got some more stuff done on the car, alignment is finished and ran it with the track day wheel set to make sure nothing interfered.

(IMG:http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a141/WarShrike/IMG_20170606_155853_724_zpsxzoztphn.jpg) SKF hub adapters so I can upgrade the front hubs to something safer with sticky tires. There are quite few documented failures of stock hubs and replacements are dodgy as is. (IMG:http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a141/WarShrike/20170606_155132_zpsnbhewqio.jpg) Replaced the stock rack with an FE4 rebuilt setup. I didn't feel like trying to do the EPAS setup because a manual rack alone for the fbody is stupid expensive.
