Ok these are forwarded to me from Jim Bowra, Todd bought Nigel's 86GT with Blair's 2.9 V6 in it.  They recently had several cars taken and put on a Chassie Dyno, which included a modded 3.4, a 3.1 a stock 2.8 and Nigel's/Blair's 2.9 which is now owned by Todd.  I have much more detailed information including the AFR spread data, HP by rpm in excel spreadsheet as well. If people want that info I'll put up a download link for it.  Take into consideration that these are "Wheel" HP numbers NOT crank numbers, so you should add 15-18% for an estimate of what the engine is making at the crank.  Also they did not tune the engines, so these are baseline numbers.  They did feel the 2.9 had an issue as it was dropping power dramatically at 5300 for some reason.

Well here are the sheets.

I am SO jealous. I think Gretchin would really struggle to see triple digits at this point.

PS, it's Chassis. I know it looks weird seeing as how it's pronounced chass-ee.

Never shift into reverse without a back-up plan.

Kinetic Motorsports in Port Kells or Mopac I need to get in touch with them and see what kind of deals they can make with pricing on the club dyno day.  A very reputable Hot Rod shop told me to stear clear of Mopac and go to Kinitec so I am reconsedering Mopac for the club dyno day.

That would be good David...I also heard to stay away from Mopac's shop in general...this would be a fun club event:)
