Not Ranked
When I was dynoing my motor, as we were bolting it on the dyno, the operator began asking me specifics about the engine, I told him the cam specs/compression etc.,etc., he then asked what I EXPECTED out of the motor........I told him I would hope for 475 hp, but would be very happy with an honest 450hp with a good a/f ratio(it made 472hp@ 6400rpms)........He told me I would NOT leave disappointed, cause I was being very realistic about my motor!!!!!!!!!!! I DID NOT leave disappointed at all.........
He said he has dynoed a ton of supposedly 600hp pump gas motors that barely made 400hp and made for some very angry owners........
Keith;even as such, you still have one heck of a motor and car, if YOU are satisfied with the performance, that's all that counts, regardless of any dyno #'s..........
