What a long day yesterday, but finally I have results.

First, Scott at Can-Alignment did a fantastic job on the alignment.  Final specs are as follows;

-2° camber
+3.8° caster
1/8″ toe out
(total)

Caster and camber were maxed out, but evened both sides.

Car was also weighed, and corner balanced.  Final weight was 3091 lbs (with 1/2 tank fuel), 50% cross weight, and a final F/R weight distribution of 56/44.  I was hoping to be lighter than that, but it is what it is.

On to the DL Motorsports for the dyno tuning;  Once Dan loaded up a default tune for the car, we ran a baseline run to get the Air/Fuel ratio.  From that point, he tweaked the tables to bring it down to a 12.5 ratio @ WOT from 2500 to 5500 RPM.  Final result was 290 RWHP (approx 335 crank HP), and 328 RWTQ (approx. 380 crank TQ).  Very happy with that for a stock LT1 with some minor bolt ons.

But, something else cropped up;  A nasty “bounce” when the rear wheels are spinning, almost like something is egg shaped.  This will be investigated further tomorrow.
