My gut tells me that the info that has been provided above has all been chassis dyno stuff, which opens a whole other can of worms, and a whole other can of variables.

Would like to see the dyno sheet.
Actually, not many variables.

The dyno sheet I looked at were chassis dyno's. Eric told me he was impressed how good my engine ran. Mine had 10.5:1 CR. Eric told me the chassis dyno incorporated the upgraded side pipes, that I had him install on my car, as were installed on the ? superformance cobra's he also had dyno'd. He showed me the dyno sheets, and per him, it was apples to apples.

Believe what you want to believe.

Here is the dyno sheet eric gave me, of the best running roush 427R he had dyno tuned.

Here is the dyno sheet of my engine, stock stroke ford FE 427 Hi-Riser heads, 10.5:1 CR, Holley 780 vac, 1964 factory Ford dual plane intake.

Let's see, my engine made 40 more hp, and 50 more ft-lbs torque, not that it really matters.

Let me guess, you still don't believe me.
