Great numbers Rick. What type of dyno are you guys using?

http://www.randrperformance.com/dynoindex.htm Using Ron is great and provided Mark and I with a video down link so we could watch his dyno run live complete with audio.

My apologies to Mark as he is not dead (LateGreatU2) and it should have been LateBrakeU2.

Wow, all of that from a stock appearing Chevelle. Very impressive.

Wow Rick,
That is impressive. Just wondering, since everybody knows that the distributor is the most important piece of the pie in building power, and since I haven't billed you yet for the rebuild, can I bill you more for this one than the last one I did for you?
(JK...........Congrats!)

Chris,
The services and knowledge you have helped me over the years is priceless so make it count!

However, just a side note but we had to replace the points due to severe point bounce at anything over 5400 RPM. After the change it was great but what can you expect from an OEM set of points.

Rick
Interesting Dyno results. I recently had my 427 425 hp enjine on the Dyno by a local shop ,been around for a dogs age or more.
I Used a stock dist and stock enjine ran the the motor on the Dyno.Then I installed in the orig dist Petronix electronic module.The Hp and torque diff was amazing with only instlling the petronix.
If I find the dyno specs of both appplications I will post them.

I always used the Delco D112P HD points. Point bounce never seemed to be a problem with them. I picked up a couple of sets a few years ago from a local shop.
