I'm having mine dyno'd tomorrow (depending on the weather) or day after. You would not believe what I went through to find a chassis dyno in the Springs area.

You could save me some time and $75 if you've already done so and would be willing to post your RWHP & TQ for me. If not, I will do it for the team and let you know the results. I'll run it with a K&N filter. Only mod (other than GMMG mod'ed) that hasn’t been done is the 160-degree power stat.

News and notes:
Ran with a Roush mush-stang the other day on 25N; nice car, but I cringe to think what he paid. I’m still licking my wounds after my purchase. [Cool]

i think you should get your SS dynoed. even though someone else with the same GMMG SS may have dynoed theirs and showed you their numbers, yours can vary. i have seen stock SS's have as much as a 15 hp difference when dynoed. if you really want to know what HP you're putting to the ground, get that baby dynoed.

i would love to see the result.

When Matt did my car he got 333 to 335hp out of it. It had a little over 2k miles on the car. That's with nothing else done except for what GMMG done to it. Good Luck [Big Grin]

Mike from GMMG just called me this morning and confirmed that I should get the same results as you did (minus the thin air we have in CO).

He also told me everything they did in order to obtain more HP. Some stuff worked, most didn't.

He then went on to say what they did to their phase II cars. All I can say is wow. That is definitely in my future.

You guys make me sick! Anyone want to adopt me?? So I can at least SIT in the cars?!!? [Smile]

Nice cars guys. Very nice. The Tom Henrys, the Bergers, they're all beautiful, I wish I could have afforded to buy one.

I love that Electron Blue SS. oh la la..

Are those Crager SS wheels on the black car? I know those are Fikse's on the Berger car.


Oh I just realized is the 380SS are you the Warrant Officer from the US Army that bought the last Tom Henry car? Just curious.

The Electron Blue Berger SS is a truly beautiful car. I saw your car at the Berger All Chevy Show Labor Day weekend of 2003 when I had my ZL1 there. The Chrome Illusion Berger SS that was there for the weekend is also a very awesome car too. Gotta love that paint job ! ! ! [Big Grin]

Matt dyno'ed my car at GMMG before it was sent up to Berger for delivery. I don't have the dyno report right in front of me but the car had 49 miles on it and the h.p. at the rear wheels was 420.6. Can't remember off the top of my head what the torque was though. The car now has 1,487 miles on it and it feels a lot stronger now than it did. I guess it is starting to "loosen" up a little bit.

And yes Doug, those are 18" Cragars on the black car. [Wink]
