Updated my website with a dyno results page....

I know the first engine on Brent's page has been on a chassis dyno so he has access to those numbers (and graphs, and corrected) if he wants it.

I just wanted my engine dynoed to get the most out of what I built....I brought along my headers and air filter and it was dynoed with my headers/air filter on and also my water pump on it,so it was fairly close as to how it would be in the car....the only thing not on it at the time was the alternator.....

The printouts I saw all had "STD Corrected" on them, so I just assumed that's how it's done...

I know air density/elevation plays a big part in HP... Down here in Louisiana at sea level it's one thing,other areas are another.......I used to drag race my street car a fair bit down here and one year went to Tulsa for the Shelby meet and ran it there.....I was 4/10ths off my "normal" time and asked others if saw the same thing, one big time racer said that was normal because of the elevation change....
I couldn't believe that would make that much difference, but it does....
