Stalled Auto's aren't dyno queens!

Don't get caught up into the numbers.

i may have to do that. But taking another course would be a re-cam. I was speced a cam from golen engine works (anyone heard of em??) with 216/222 with .575/.575 114 LSA. Claims it pulls harder for a truck with my setup. Says on engine dyno makes over 500 hp with 460-470 tq. Sound right??

Sounds about right. Subtract about 75 from each number for RW numbers.

Not exactly sure what you are looking for honestly? Are you chasing a number? 500 engine?

Have you taken the car out and enjoyed driving it...beating on it a little? What did it run at the track? Honestly, who gives a crap what number it makes on a dyno...get that pig to the track, grip it and rip it!!

Post some track times. I think the numbers you got are right around where it should be.

enjoy the car before you tear it apart again!
