His car is a stalled automatic, yours is a 6 speed. Dyno numbers are not going to even be close.

Did you dyno it at Redline? My car put down 374 at their old shop with a YankSS3600, Futral F4 and otherwise stock 98 engine with 90,000 miles. I think you will be shocked when you take it to the track. Only 3 months until the track opens.

I no that but even with ported 243s over stock 853s should be anywhere from a 20-40 rwhp difference. I think he should have hit over 400. But then again I thought I should have to I guess the flowmaster and 4.10s held me back. Bring it to the track dyno numbers don't really mean that much track times do!

I did a dyno run on my Ed Curtis cam with AI 243s that cam is very similar to the MS3 but has higher lift 614, w/ a vigi 3400 stall and 3.42s before my E-85 conversion I was at 412/356 rwhp/rwtq

Yeah, there are some. Its the factory freaks that just have the most solid bottom ends in them usually.

I dynoed over at Pur Performance on a dyno jet. 4000k stalled cars are not dyno queens what so ever. I will post up some track numbers when I run over there. I'll be happy hitting mid 11's.
