Bill, looks like that G-tech is right on the money. With those same mods, I pulled 209 (before TB or PCM) which was about 245 hp, and now after the PCM I'm at 216 rwhp (292 rwtq) which is about 255 fwhp. I have added the Hughes TB, and have noticed a nice increase, although no dyno results, but track results say about 5-10 hp. So that puts me around 221 rwhp, and 260+ fwhp.
I estimate 300 ftlbs TQ at the rear wheels.
Not to shabby for 287 cubes, and OHC ;)
Has anybody done the headers?? any results yet??

<< Guys,
    After the computer got over 150 miles on it, I decided to give the
QUICK-D TB a good test. I made 5 runs with the G-Tech and took an average.
PLUS> (5,7,6,7,6) It averaged about 6.2 HP gain. I really think this is
probably a lot truer gain than the 4 that I first recorded with only 35 miles
on the computer after installation.
    Bone stock, the G-Tech gave me a 230.1hp average. 5 run average. With the
cool-air intake, K&N cone, 3" Gibson Cat-Back and the QUICK-D, I have now
averaged 244hp. Next is Mike Leach, I guess. I can now see 250hp next year.
I still have one secret you don't know about.. 350hp.. (I will become: "THE
LIGHTNING ARRESTOR")
    I noticed that she hits the rev-limiter (6100rpm) like a Sledge Hammer
now. It used to sneak up to it from 5600rpm. Resonance in the intake changed
from 2800 to about 3200rpm. Better upper end torque too. This little engine
still has a lot of potential to be unleashed. Bill
