I remember when I brought my mustard 40 back from @wngrog the first time. I was turning 2800 RPM’s and it just felt like it might go at any point. With the new motor, I routinely hit 3500 before I shift and it’s smooth as can be.
Recap: Dyno try #1 resulted in a dead Sniper before we even started. Red is back at the shop. Fred Smith and the boys are behind the scenes, rushing a Sniper for next day hand delivery.
Next day, the Sniper shows up. We get it swapped over and take it out for a test drive…
(These sound like ass playing back on a phone. It sounds much better with headphones or AirPods)
Here’s a little more spirited romp on the throttle, blasting up the viaduct that carries us safely over the hood instead of through. This was a second gear rolling start up to the speed limit. 60% throttle max:
We have the truck back where it was, which means we’re almost ready for the dyno. I just need to be able to connect to the Holley software.
This time, we’re almost in the clear. We can connect Sniper to laptop, but need to update the Holley Software on the laptop itself before we can proceed.
A few hours later, we are fully updated and connected, and save & reload the config file to confirm. Excitedly, I text the dyno guy, who tells us to be there first thing in the morning.
Nolen, who is eager to get the truck back and willing to jinx all of our hard work for a thread update, says he will meet us there so he can take the truck home as soon as the dyno is over
