Have you not seen the advert currently running on TV Pat?Killer wasps?????
In my NOT SO humble opinion that has to be one of the worst adverts ever. My stomach turns every time they run it. Having said that people obviously take note.

Thought I may aswell put mine down for the 6 cyl guys.
Name: Chris
Model: LC Sedan
Engine type: red 202
Engine Mods: blue crank/rods, stage3 y/t head, roller rockers, bathust XU1 cam, 6kg flywheel, 020 over size pistons.
Manual or Auto: manual.
Diff Ratio: 3.45 borg warner
Power Output: 150.7 rwhp @5500 rpm
Torque: 230 ft/lbs

I think theres a fair bit more in it with a bit more head work as engine comfotably revs to around 7000rpm.

about 10 yrs back we did a 327 chev for a sand drag bike- fairly mild combo
specs..eng.- 327 chev + 030
pistons- trw fgd 9.5
heads - brownfield (ex sprintcar)
cam - crower 288 hdp 1.5 ratio roller rockers
crank - std.327 lge journal with stock rods balanced
intake - victor jnr. 750 holley dp ( jones fuel systems usa), procharger P600
centrifugal supercharger.
fuelsys. - magnaflow 500 gph pump and magnaflow boost sensitive regulator
spark - mallory supermag 2
fuel used was c-16 vp and we dynoed the engine on bill hanson's engine dyno in adel.
results were- 599.7 hp @ 6500 rpm and 510 ft/lbs 5500 rpm.
we used dyno headers on the day but built zoomies for the 'bike'

Now THAT is an interesting comparison!
Mike: Was "Shootout mode" used on both Dynos to correct the values back to a base line? Did you do any mods to the car between the two runs? What was the weather like between the two days?
It's an interesting comparison, and this is why i've never been keen on using dyno reports as a bragging tool because there are so many factors! i dynoed mine for tuning sake and also to get a ballpark figure of horsepower made!
Very interesting, thanks for sharing!

What is the difference between Hub Mounted and Rolling Road?
And also, how does power change between Shootout and the other mode. I have never fully understood it.

Hub mounted they remove your wheels and attach the dyno to the hubs! No chance of slippage or other factors related to the tyres slipping on the rollers of the rolling road.
Shootout mode was designed to bring a level playing field to it to give a baseline correction factor to all runs so that they can compare one sheet with another.
As you know your car runs better on a cooler denser day than on a hot day, and so dyno reports on the same car on different days will be different. They measure all the barometric differences (Ambient temp, air pressure, etc etc etc) and aply a correction factor to bring those back to an effective Zero figure.
If you remeber seeing a dyno sheet of eddie tassone's twin turboed commodore of about 1800hp... one of the sensors read the IT figure ( Intake Temp) as 200 degrees ( from memory... the figures might be wrong!), and caclulated the horsepower was HUGE cause it was breathing very hot air. That's an example of how it works when the real figure should have been something around maybe 1200Hp.
Hope this helps a bit mate! of course that's my basic understanding of it all!

Thanks for that Tiny, That clears HEAPS up for me!
I had never head of Hub Mounted Dyno's... You learn something everyday! I need to get a tune very soon. When (If) i ever do i will put up my figures

when i finally get around to it, an old friend of my dads has an AWD dyno in his ultra tune shop.
Told us we could wheel the toranas in for a run.

Tiny,
Not sure about shootout mode but conditions were similar. The difference between the 2 dyno readings is exactly why you use the same dyno for comparitive testing, the actual figure gained is purely a reference point- no more than that.

Thanks for the reply mike!
I was curious to see if there were losses to do with the tyres compared to the hub mount version hence why i asked about the conditions!

TA Torana 2 door
Stock 1300 cc / L13
Trans - M20 � Manual 4 speed 117mm � 3.31 1st
Axle - G96 � 3.55 ratio
Not Dynoed, but on the rego papers in 1974 it said 46hp
After 30 odd years and only 15, 000 k's I reckon I still got 30hp plus under there to rocket me round
