What I Did Today

Corvettes for St Jude's Children's Hospital did their annual dyno day.




The Precious' first pull gave a 388.34 hp and 379.70 ft-lb torque.




Pull number two gave 392.16 hp and the same 379.70 ft-lb.

Those are obviously rear wheel numbers.  The rule of thumb is you lose about 15% to driveline loss from the flywheel.  Dividing by 0.85 gives 461.36 hp!  That's more than the rated 436 hp, and that's a good thing.  Plus it did it in 84˚ air with 42% humidity.
