[QUOTE="Jr. Corvette, post: 221820, member: 1906"] Brian, I completely agree. You know the more I keep looking into things the more dyno results are absolutely useless because they vary so much. Super Chevy did a test with an engine dyno'd 750 HP engine. They went to 5 dynos and 3 of the dynos were between 620-660rwhp however one of the other dynos was 540rwhp and the other was like 520rwhp. I honestly can't remember the numbers and I can't seem to find the article but I remember results between these dynos have a difference of as much as 140rwhp. From the people I've talked to they say that dyno result seems weird for my build. Super Chevy actually built almost my exact engine with the exact same cam and cast iron 200CC heads with a 9:0cr and they made 406hp and around 400ftlbs of torque. Then when they bolted the supercharger on they made 550hp and 550ftlbs and that was with cast iron heads. I've book in another dyno session with Dale Adam's just to compare. I'm not as concerned with the numbers although it better be more than 268 and 270. I'm more concerned with a smooth power curve and then I can work with the dyno and do some tuning to try and improve my car. I don't think I would even be as concerned if my dyno would have been a smooth curve but my curve looks like a have an inline 4 with a turbo. Plus the 5th gear pull is annoying. I will update you guys on the 21st after my dyno (as long as it hasn't snowed and I can't make it). I appreciate all of the input! [/QUOTE]
