Dynos vary. I'm not and haven't been convinced that it's a malicious intent; I think it's just the conditions of the dyno room and the conditions of the day. Barry's dyno and the dyno I use seem to be fairly close to each other. There are others within driving distance of my place that would make me a hero.

If guys would go into a dyno session viewing it as a baseline to compare tweaks/changes, and to insure quality, then a lot of this useless banter would go away. A dyno is never an end-all/be-all. For instance, I built a 408C drag race engine that made the most power on the dyno at 28° total timing, but picked up ET when my guy went to 30°. Go figure.
