I had Hensler Racing of Renoldsburg,OH install my new parts. It was nice to have someone working on my engine that knows what they are doing. I took them the engine only. They had it done in just a couple of days. I picked it up friday.


It took me about 9 hours of work to get my car on the road again. I pulled and replaced the engine by myself with no help.
After I got everything hooked up the moment of truth came. Before turning the key you know wondering did I hook everything up right. :shrug:


I turned the key and it fired right up It runs with you know a lope now. :hail2: I drove it about 60 miles today with the only problems being. It surges a little crusing at highway speeds and as I stopped at a few redlights it quit on me. It quit because the idle dropped down to fast to catch up.

I can really feel the extra power now. I know I have to get it tuned again. And it will take care of these minor problems.

I will post the new dyno #'s when I get them. My old #'s are 279.6@5500 HP and 313.7@4250 TQ on a Mustang dyno tuned by LaSotaRacing.com. Also great guys to work with.

These passes were on nitto drag radials. 275/40/17
This was the first time out with this combo and tires. My 60' before on 315/35/17 were 1.83's.
 
Ive been thinking of putting in a cam. Would be interested in your numbers. Any suggestions for which cam to go with or how much it will cost? I want that real "lopy" sound you speak of, like an old muscle car.
