Well, I finally decided to tune/dyno the mustang. For those who know, this has been in the works for a little over 3 years now. When I ordered my short block form CHP I didn't intend on running the Novi 2000, just a little spray. I have the biggest pulley for the blower, hoping to not make more than 10-12 lbs of boost. The blower is good for 28psi. Well, at 10:1 and 9lbs it not only blew out my spark, but also blew the compression ring on my head gasket out of the engine. Literally it "blew" the head gasket. On the last pull if you watch in front of the front wheel, you will see a quick flash of fire and then black smoke comes out of the wheel well. Good times let me tell ya.
The car made 505 rwhp on basically 7 cyl, at 5,000 rpms, with only 9lbs of boost and a very safe 10:1 AFR. Oh yeah, the 42's were at 100% duty.
Back to the drawing board.
A HUGE thanks to Brian, Howard and Eric for staying until 1am to try and figure my mess out. They rock as always!
Enjoy...
