Race tune tonight with the 4.25" upper. Made 870 @ 6500 on pump 93 and 14* of timing. My redline is 7200 now but we didnt want to push it. Mustang Dyno btw. Tonight we should see the good stuff. Ordered a 4" and 3.75" upper for the 4.5 also...the 4.25 still wont have the blower in its efficiency range until 7k. This blower is happy at 16k rpm...my 4.5" upper we used on pump max rpm at 6500 was around 12k..hardly even working the blower with this engine combo so its time to feed her more blower rpm. Boost should be about 23psi.

For those keeping score this is the same power i made on my old motor with the 3.6 KB @ 23 psi on E85 and 200 rpm less. That analysis kept us from spinning it up higher and from turning up timing. Bill is adding a few degrees down low and up to 4500 to keep her happy around town. 15* was commanded but only held 14* thru entire run. Timing will remain 15* commanded from 4500-6500.

Gotta give huge thanks to a few people who were instrumental in this build...#1 being Jim Larocca..who undoubtably is the reason this entire combo was put together....and #2 Bill Miller my calibrator and personal friend. I will do my best to drive the wheels off of it and make you guys proud.
