At least with my post getting his DA figured out, he has some data to factor in with the weight of his car (when he gets it).

Then he will have some actual numbers to plug into some online calculators and not just have to listen to a bunch of "my completely different car (except for the small block part) did this ET or my friend's completely different car (except for the small block part) did that ET so your car should do this ET" which is mostly what he's been getting on this thread (unless you want to count the vac. secondary vs DP arguments too). Not real helpful to the OP in my opinion.



Plenty of good info in this thread if you sift through it. Like most threads, rarely a definitive answer to any substantive questions.

I was poking at the people saying DA was a factor in how poorly the car was running. I guess that's a non factor now.

Estimates on what this engine should be making are laughable. 300hp, PLEASE!!!

If a comparison to a car that has less engine in it, running 10-12mph faster in 4K worse DA isn't something to think about, then have at it. And please, the extra weight will slow the car about 4-5 mph.

Maybe the alleged smart people in this thread can sort out the issues why this car runs 8-10mph slower than it should. I know where I would start!
