Not Ranked
God! Let it rest.
His numbers are his numbers. I think everyone knows that
different dyno's will read differently. That is why the
PopHotRod contest brings all its contestants to one central
location. Not because that dyno is the most accurate, just
so that all the engines get measured on the same dyno.
I think the better measure of an engine builder's ability is
customer satisfaction. Does the new engine mark its territory (Mr. S.?). Does it perform to expectations, never mind what
the dyno says (speed limits were originally set by masking
off the gauges and just asking drivers "do you feel uncomfortable
at this speed? How about now?..."). And most important gauge
of customer satisfaction: do you feel you got a fair price?
