American Nightmare
In my thread, "Free or Cheap mods", there was a discussion started about everyone pooling together to fund some dyno runs and actually test some theories. I figured I might be best equipped since I have both big and small block trucks, and I live less than five minutes from a dyno. Chime in if you disagree. The cost is $125 per hour to rent the dyno and have one of his techs run it, and I will be able to swap parts myself to save money on labor. Obviously on larger parts such as headers, exhaust, etc, it will take a little more time, and would be beneficial to do separate runs between parts swaps, and then it's only $80 for a 3-pull numbers run, so a total of $160 for a baseline and then see what the part does. Mainly we were talking about intake setups and such, but I'm open to anything. I already have some parts, like a Volant intake on the big block (which I have already figured how to fit to the smallblock) and both K&N and Spectre Filters, along with stock paper ones, of course. I don't imagine it would take much more than an hour to test all of those. The idea is for everyone to pitch in a little for dyno time and parts. If it's a part I want to keep, I'll reimburse ya'll according to what you put in, if it's not, I'll sell it and pay you back what you put in. I, for one, would like to see some numbers put up and stop guessing, what do ya'll think.
