Dyno Results

Stock vs Regrind
Stock vs 280

In order to check out the results from the engine simulator (see simulation), we have done a limited amount of dyno testing.  In these tests, we have tested a car on a chassis dynamometer before and after swapping cams.  The tests performed are as follows:

Stock vs Regrind - replaced a long duration 290 lift regrind with a NOS cam
Stock vs 280 - replaced a NOS cam with a new billet 280 Super-Power cam

These tests are not ideal scientific experiments.  Differences of less than one half horsepower are probably not significant.  More precise results could be obtained using an engine dynamometer, but unfortunately we do not have access to one.
