Dime Rocket HP Computation
Well, not exactly, because of the body I'd need, but now that I have your attention;
Does anyone have the program software where we could plug in the values and get a close approximation? Thanks in advance myac455@gmail.com 602-769-0346

Mark, horsepower isn't in a "Dime Rocket" budget!

Re: Dime Rocket HP Computation
After last weekend's heads up race with Robert in the Mustang I used the Wallace calculator to see the HP difference between his car/ weight and my car/ weight. I actually make more HP. But to keep up I need 40 more. Back to tuning!

Re: Dime Rocket HP Computation
Back in the mid/late 90's you could get the desk top dyno program for your engine,you could try different cams at various C/L's etc. that made the most power.Then you would plug the info into a simulator program that would predict your ET and MPH.You could plug in different weight, shift points,conv.stall,rear gear etc.On my car it was pretty close.Nowadays Wallace calculators has a lot of options for predictions.You would need your RW hp and weight,and the price is right FREE !!... gsa612

Actually ,I don't know if the calculators would go that low. I'll call you when I get caught up. You probably already know most of this.
