procharger C3 corvette (good news)
I havent done a very good job in keeping people up to date but i finally did figured out my engine thanks to Hi Tech's help out of Elk River MN. We strapped her down to the dyno and ran some pulls. Ran 530 to the wheels after we dropped jet sizes like crazy @ 5600rpms. We had to stop after a leak was found in the intake gaskets spewing oil out the front and back. Found out I had the wrong valve springs in the engine thanks to Brian @ Hi Tech. He hinted at the springs from the dyno graph. (floating) Turns out they were hydraulic springs set up with a solid roller cam which nosed over on the top end. Fixed it and it has been running so damn good with a CSU carb on top. Hitting 7k rpms really well. Thank God Its finally working I was gonna go fuel injected but the carb is working so well now that it is a keeper. Last summer was great. Cranked the timing like Kevin said another 6 degrees past what we did on the dyno and ran her to 7 k and the power came on wonderfully. What great support from CSU and Hi Tech!!!! Kevin Van Noy is the man and knows his E85 blow through carb setups. I have to say thanks for his advice and Hi Techs dyno. This year I can't wait to start upping boost!!!!

01-23-2010 #3Since then I have had TNT specialites put in a 4 point chromoly roll cage and some suspension work. Im wondering what you guys think of running two Aeromotive A 1000's in series to support future horsepower with upping the boost on the procharger to ensure there is enough fuel?

01-23-2010 #12I will get a new dyno this spring with video. Im sure it will be much more than 530.
