Is 563 rwhp too much,........

Native1- you can't be more correct, I love these car's too.
HP & weight= fast fun !
563 rwhp is a good number if you have the proof of that Cobra that traps over 140 mph at the drag strip. That would be cool. Usually from what I've noticed on Club Cobra 427 big blocks have trap speeds to support a couple hundred less HP at the wheels though. Your car must be pretty hot. Have you had it to the drag strip?

I think each type of dyno has good purpose. Something I like about the Dynojet is you get a number and it's darn near exact to trap speed at the drag strip after you plug it back into HP calculators. Mustang dynos have their place too.
