1994 GT 5.0 5-speed dyno'd with 70,000 miles and 3.73 gears. Was told by the guy with the dyno, gears might help torque but has no effect on HP.
Bone F'in stock. 8 deg initial timing.
At the wheels:
Max HP: 191.2@4300 (225 stock w/85% efficency)
Max torque: 264.5@3000 (311 flywheel)
Avg HP from 2100-6000: 160.8
Avg TQ from 2100-6000: 219.1
With Edelbrock Performer 5.0 heads & intake, 70mm TB, stock MAF with MAC Cold air kit, Cobra 1.7 RR, stock cam, Motorsport 1 5/8" shorty unequal headers, BBK 2 1/2" cat h-pipe, Flowmaster 2-chamber cat-back, 19 lb inj, and 13 deg timing (still pinged during dyno runs).
Max HP: 259.5@4900 (305)
Max TQ: 303.0@3900 (356.5)
Avg HP from 2300-6400: 209.7
Avg TQ from 2300-6400: 257.3
Iced intake for 30 min on above combo.
Max HP: 283.1@(DN, chart didn't reg) (333)
Max TQ: 318.8@3900 (375)
Avg HP from 2100-6500: 220.3
Avg TQ from 2100-6500: 274.4
191 hp at the wheels would come up with an almost 90% efficency through the drivetrain which I thought was unbelieveably optimistic so I went with the 225 base number to come up with an 85% eff which I thought was more believeable with the 5-speed. The more accepted 80% would have yielded a flywheel hp of almost 240 which even the most diehard Ford mags would have laughed at.
Never ran a quarter, but my G-Tech says consistent 14.30's @ 104 with the new combination. Haven't had a chance to dyno it since I got the 93 comp and 30lb injectors. However, since the injectors, I can now run 16 deg initial on the street on 91 oct.
