Dynoed the LX today...

[KrisR]

'90 5-speed 5.0

Mods:

BBK ceramic shorties
MAC offroad H
MAC catback
C&L MAF (73mm?)
bigass cone K&N filter
14* timing, 92 octane

SAE net, HiTech's Dynojet
215hp at 4700rpm, 283 ft-lbs at 3500rpm
A/F was between 12.9 and 13.4 the entire run...guess the tune is OK

I figued it would make 200/270, so I'm pretty happy. Good starting point.

Sounds like a good base. Now you gotta decide which car gets more parts.

Sounds like a good base. Wonder what it did when it had the nitrous hooked up.

Maybe I'll find out in a week or so.....


EDIT...caught your ninja edit Punch....

The '90 will get more parts, the '04 will get less parts, then probably a new owner.

Did that help the shifter noise? I know the one axle was bent but didnt have time to dig any deeper. I also bought some shoes for my 03. That car is going to flat out fly!!!

[Sleeper]

when did you get an LX??

[KrisR]

No, but the stock shift handle out of my '01 GT (with rubber mount) bolted right in and made it a lot quieter (and the shifter feels a lot better). The car still buzzes after 90mph, but not as bad. Might need a driveshaft or something. I'll figure it out...no biggie.

want to try a frum roll sometime?

[JPD0244]

Looked like a new driveshaft to me. New u joints and whatnot. The gears in back looked like they were wearing ok to me. fluid didnt have a ton of crud in it. I hated that shifter!!! felt too reclined or something. I am sure youll figure it out.
