When it comes to stock ford blocks I believe it 302-347 and 351-427. I've got a dart block and can go to 468 but if I scratch a wall I'm fucked.

Over here slicks on a stick shift car = Racecar

Beware

But I keep telling myself to leave the cobra alone but the extra money I'll be making over seas....

All these cars roll out the Evo was quick too

Drag radials are only good for getting higher mph at the track on a stick shift car. They can't absorb the shock of the gear changes like a bias ply slick.
Yes I know but I hate street driving in slicks and didn't want to spend more money on that pile this year. Now I'm switching to an auto and buying another set of cheap rears for slicks.

Since the stang lost 1 and won 1, his car was obviously near the same. The Evo was neck and neck also, it too must be near the same 900 crank. OP, correct me if I'm wrong, but was that the logic?

Reasonable logic, but I could be wrong.
My buddy told me that clean91 told him it made 900, so that's all I had to go off of. Hence why I messaged him to ask if that was correct or not. And people that were there said the evo made 900 but im not up from that area so I don't know the car. If the evo could shift a lot better its obvious that he would of pulled on me

This is why I never believe what someone makes for power or what someone's car can do unless I hear it directly from the source. A lot of kids like to exaggerate or bullshit.

Just my 2 cents on that.

Very true but a lot of owners lie about the power too...whether they say its higher or lower.

From my experience the high power guys lie and say it's lower to get races (like your boy telling me your car was a 3xx in with a 76mm), and the low power guys say it's higher to try and earn respect. I on the other hand only told a few people the true numbers and let everyone else speculate. Some of the numbers that came out were pretty outrageous too. It was funny.

This is pretty much me. I only tell a few people my number and let everyone else figure it out.

I let my numbers out just to see the reaction on people's faces. Pretty comical.

You know the thing that also pisses me off about dyno numbers? When someone says they made x on y dyno and that they would make z on a dynojet and try to go with dynojet numbers. Unless you put the car on an actual dynojet you don't really know what the car would actually make on one. I've seen cars go back to back on different dynos, one of them being a dynojet and make within 5 horsepower of each other.

My last vette made 675whp on a dyno dynamics and 693 on a dynojet. Nothing changed on either dyno and about the same ambient temperature.

There is a dyno here that you have to take the wheels off and bolt this hub up to the axle. It reeds like 60-80 wheel more than a dynojet.

You're talking about slowmotions dynopack right? I don't remember exact numbers but there's a 350z up here that was on there's then on big3's mustang and it made damn near 100hp less on the mustang. There's a del sol up here with a dyno sheet showing 750whp from slowmotion, I tried getting him to run for money a few times this year but he wanted no part of it. Lol.

I think all hub dynos read a little high. IMO
