    Desktop Dyno?

     



    Hey guys I have a healthy little small block chevy here, that I know performs very well, as it consistently clicks off low 11 e.t's, and on a perfect day, and a perfect run, pull high 10's on drag radials and open headers. It's been put together for a long time, so a few of the details are probably pretty vague, but I was wondering if somebody around here could run my combo on the "desktop dyno"? it would be really appreciated.

    Well anyway, my combo consists of:
    a 350 4 bolt main block; bored .060 over
    Manley "H Lite" forged 4340 series rods 5.7"
    Eagle forged 4340 series crank (factory stroke)
    Dome pistons (dont remember specific size or anything, but they are forged aluminum)
    Camel Hump "492" over the counter series heads, extensively ported and polished, recut for 2.04(intake)/1.60(exhaust) vaves; I believe they flow 276 cfm (intake)/ and 198 cfm (exhaust) @ .600 lift (the heads were milled and decked to compromise a 12:1 compression ratio when matched with the dome pistons
    Manley Valve Springs good for .700 lift
    Crane 1.5 full roller rockers
    Crane "Saturday Night Special" series Solid Flat Tappet Cam
    Here is a direct copy of the cam card from Summit Racings website:

    Cam Style: Mechanical flat tappet
    Basic Operating RPM Range: 4,600-8,000
    Intake Duration at 050 inch Lift: 268
    Exhaust Duration at 050 inch Lift: 276
    Duration at 050 inch Lift: 268 int./276 exh.
    Advertised Intake Duration: 304
    Advertised Exhaust Duration: 312
    Advertised Duration: 304 int./312 exh.
    Intake Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio: 0.572 in.
    Exhaust Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio: 0.590 in.
    Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio: 0.572 int./0.590 exh. lift
    Lobe Separation (degrees): 106
    Intake Valve Lash: 0.026 in.
    Exhaust Valve Lash: 0.026 in.

    Weiand "Hi Ram" single quad tunnel ram intake; smoothed runner divider area, ported plenum and ported lower; port matched.
    Holley 4150 750 carb; jetted to flow 830 cfm
    Hooker Hussler full length 1 3/4" headers 3" collector
    and for crusing on the street I've got Flowmaster 3" super 44's dumped right out of the mufflers.

    Drivetrain consists of:
    a Muncie M22 series 4 speed transmission; pro shifted by Liberty Transmissions; backed by a Zoom Dual Friction Clutch; and the gears are rowed via a Hurst Street Super Shifter
    The rearend is a GM 12 Bolt; loaded with a 4.11 posi, and kept to the pavement with Lakewood ladder bars

    Rolling stock is Cragar 14x8's on the rear with G60 14 Mickey Thompson Indy Profiles
    and Cragar 14x6's on the front with 195x70/14's.

    Well I don't know what all is needed for the informative parts of the Desktop Dyno,but I hope I gave enough, if not I'll try to find some old receipts, and my actual head flow #'s somewhere. If I gave too much info, sorry, I'm just really proud of it.
