Hi,
Usually it would not apply to these types of cars but I'm curious if anyone has ever had there engine Dyno tested. I'm trying to determine some engine acceleration/power issues with my car and I cant find the problem. Engine is a 352 and I use both a relatively new Edelbrock 600cfm carb and a fairly fresh rebuilt Autolite 4100. The Engine accelerates clean until 25mph then gets bogged down with not much power from 25-55. Nothing else. Regardless of the carb I used. There is a new fuel filter on as well.
Should I put it on a Dyno machine to get the real story - Would that help me solve my problem? I know its usually for "Tuner" type cars and racers so just grabbing for straws.
I don't think its the fuel pump but who knows. Suggestions are welcomed.
