Max,

I'll post your dyno sheet when I have a minute to take some photos of them and upload to this site. Think it peaked out about 6200 rpm. I have to remember it's not a 302 so we didn't take it to 8100 rpm.

Jerry

Whoa!!!!!! Does this mean I shouldn't be spinning my 427 BB that high?

Just kidding! Glad to see you here Jerry. I'm sure most will appreciate your input.

Was that 540 horse with dyno headers or the original exhaust manifolds?

that was with the dyno headers with exhaust...(correct me if I am wrong Jerry) I assume the exhaust is probably the most limiting factor on the stock ZL-1 motors.
