Is this another unpaid advertisement? I saw Southern Automotive (who pays for banner ads on this site BTW) dyno a 510CID 427 SO that ended up at 660HP with a lousy set of dyno headers and torque figures in the 650+ range (they were still going at it when I left). Compression ratio was higher, and it ran on pump gas if they serve 100+ Octane where you fill up. The thing I hate about dyno stuff is unless you are using the same brand/model of dyno in the same atmospheric conditions, or correcting to the same, they are about as reliable and truthful as your local politician if making comparisons.
