I wouldn't believe them
jdean I am not picking on you, just bring to the table alot of other things that have a drag on the drive train. The more rotating weight that is removed, the more power made. I don't believe all the GM stuff and I work for them for all most 28 years. The trans in the rear of the car was to add weight and balance the car to more of a 48/52% weight change. They are back to tubes for the drive shafts. They are also trying to get more weight on the rear tires for traction. I did leave out the slipage on a tire on a dyno. This depends on the roller and how worn it is. Also the tire and how hard it bites the drum. Don't get me wrong, Dynos are great with limits too. I use them myself but have found that in the end the LM-1 meter with A/F readings on the road is just a little better. I also run Fuel Injection which give me and easier way to adjust the motor. It's a little hard to be driving at 60 mph and trying to change the jets.
I am trying to give you just the facts.
