Default Dyno Tuning Recos: North Atlanta

Hey guys:
I live in Dunwoody and I was wondering if there were any strong recommendations for a dyno/tuning shop up here? I have a 74 pantera that needs some work on dialing in the new carb I bought and I would probably want them to tune the cobra as well. I appreciate any thoughts you may have and/or share any experiences as well!

Thank You,
Khan

a item for you to watch for ----we just did an engine for a Pantera and when on the dyno I was watching things as the car was ran up thru the test range---above 5ooorpm the fuel pressure slowly dropped and of course we stopped the test to examine things--
We ran it again with particular attention to the fuel supply and it once again dropped as the test ran past 5000prm----the source of the problem was traced to the supply line out of the tank--it is a very small diameter tube and limits the flow

seems to be a moderately well know fact and these cars need a larger fuel supply for high performance/racing uses

I too am aware. This is a street machine but I am replacing all my hoses anyway but not to a larger diameter.

Ryan from Injected Engineering got back to me. They don't do carburators; only EFI. Just an FYI for folks that might find this thread.

Khan,

I am not 100%, but I believe I have heard mention of Mustangs Unlimited doing dyno tuning in the area.

Come out to Rd Atl this Saturday and hang-out....I'm sure someone (or many) will have suggestions for you !

Hope to see you soon !

Thanks Pig. Can't make it out this saturday; my right rear caliper is making the rotor temp flame up to 500+ degrees. Troubleshooting that before the cobra slithers out on the pavement again.
