My Big Block vette on the rolling road at the nationals 2011

Here's a link, to the video of my vette on the dyno
Main run starts at about 4.00 mins in
Didn't get the hp figures i was expecting, as i didn't disconnect the tv cable to the trans as i have heard of horror stories when doing this, but it did show torque figurs of up to 400lbft

I remember watching that Pete, sounded nice, i didnt think that a rolling road could calculate torque figures on a auto box? i thought torque was measured by the resitance and run down which the autobox wont let you do?

Thumbs up

Hi mark, not sure about that, I'll have to take your word for it. I thought the trouble with the auto box was that you should disconnect the kickdown/ tv cable so it won't change down in the power run. How's yours going?
