Having done the EMC deal for a few years I know that many dyno installations give different numbers, and that it has nothing to do with the intentions of the builder or operator - but more to do with room venting, exhaust layout, and physical hookups. I've compared mine to several local pumps, as well as the ones at the contest in Ohio - but more info is always good for everybody.
I'm looking at my last dyno session and all the pulls started at 3500 rpms.....That part I understand,looking the water temp,it stayed between 145 and 150......
looking at your dyno sheet,your water temp was in the 138 to 145 range,any particular reason for these water temps vs. running the water temp at 180 degrees,more closely to the "normal" operating water temp.???
Just curious.....
