1970 cuda going on the dyno.....WHP predictions?

tonybolton · Nov 4, 2015

Figured I'd finally see what its doing and what A/Fs are.

Any guesses on the power? Seems to be a lot a smart folks on this board for this kinda stuff.

Only things I can offer besides the spec sheet is:
2 500cfm carbs
3" longtube headers
TF727 auto trans.

230 to the wheels first pull

Better toss a few extra straps on it to keep that beast chained down then!

MoparMan · Nov 4, 2015

Somewhere around 550hp 600tq

Re:

Won't lie that would be ****ing awesome but I think that's a little bit higher than what I expect

MoparMan · Nov 4, 2015

Yeah I might be a little high. Kinda guessing off of a previous car I had: 06 Magnum SRT8 with a 426ci Late model HEMI, ported and polished factory heads and intake, relatively small comp cam. It put down 500hp 550tq through a 5 spd auto with stock converter.

That's the same grind cam I had in my ol truck motor. I'm gonna guess about 312 to the wheels.

We doing Price is Right rules?

Ill say:

398 hp
419 tq

dynajeep · Nov 4, 2015

Guessing around 380whp same goes for tq

mckeddie · Nov 4, 2015

325 hp. 365 ft/lbs

pholmann · Nov 4, 2015

You can't hide money!! If I could only afford to put anything on a dyno. :stir:

I'm gonna say 370 hp to the rear wheels.

Auto will kill it on the dyno...I say 345hp and 365 tq.

sledneck · Nov 4, 2015

Mustang or dynojet dyno?

muddinmetal · Nov 4, 2015

dual carbs will hurt you.. 1st pull 340/365 ish ... If you have ability to properly tune by the 3rd pull you should see 368/390

lowbudgetjunk · Nov 4, 2015

I'll say 299 just because that is truly the shittiest number you could ask for.....and I didn't look at any of the specs :stir:

zukimaster · Nov 4, 2015

375hp- 415tq

That thing would have to make around 750-800 at the flywheel to do that at the wheels!

Yup...I know. Heard these trans take a lot a power to turn.

I'm thinking its dynojet. I can't remember. I forgot the mustangs are called the heartbreaker version.

I agree on the duals. I'll also admit this thing is not tuned 100% I mean it starts good ...cruised good but has some quirks in certain throttle positions.
