Great meet! It was really great seeing everyone. I was pondering the dyno results and concluded that this was an unusually stingy dyno and that we should find a less hostile one before we do this again. Personally I prefer to use theoretical HP figures as it is less wear and tear on the engine and much cheaper to accomplish. Therefore, I will accept my 350 HP as real and see no reason to confirm this on some stupid dyno. Besides people tend to believe a Cobra should have this much power and rarely question me.The trick is to have enough chrome on the engine to give the illusion of tremendous power. Chrome is cheap compared to heads and blowers and stuff. So, my advice is to pick a believable number and exude confidence if questioned.Theoretically,Pete.
