Reply to "First test of my 408 Stroker"

Heine, re-read my posting maybe? My point is that people who make a living on this quotes HP numbers to us that perhaps/perhaps not are a bit optimistic?

I don't know if your engine has more power than mine, I'll be willing to test that on the street any time. But if I compare our 408s I'd doubt yours would be considerably more powerful. We all know Dan Jones' skills, he's also helped me so that's not in question. But if I compare the world's claimed leading Cleveland builder, winner of Jeg's engine Masters more than once, doing a complete engine dyno and adjusting carb and ignition, if I compare that to Danish engine builders, dragracers or not, I know where I'd put my money. And remember your engine has not been dynoed, your car has, and then the nice guy at the dyno adjusts a lot of things. I'd be careful on numbers like that. It may be what the American's call a Happy Dyno. All customers leave happy.
But that's just me.

I'm sure we get an opportunity to settle this the right way some day, on the street Cool
