Thanks for that. As we've all talked about, dyno runs are barely ever comparable, but they are still neat to see. And there is nothing wrong with taking them with a grain of salt.
What I found more interesting is the variance in deliver torque lower down in the rpm when then engine was loaded heavily. I'll be using this dyno for any modifications I do so that I can compare equally. The numbers really are irrelevant because of dynos producing varying numbers. My vette with 650 crank hp dynod at 530 whp on thjs dyno.Thanks for that. As we've all talked about, dyno runs are barely ever comparable, but they are still neat to see.

I personally like to see a dyno run backed up with a hp number utilizing 1/4 mile trap speed and vehicle weight. When those 2 numbers jive I see no reason a person couldn't claim the numbers as an accurate representation of power output. Having said that, ain't nothing wrong with ballpark dyno numbers either.....
However, the real shit sandwich is served up when the factory says 260/442
and the dyno shows you 170/304
Still wouldn't mean much, but it'll eat at you if you're a gearhead.
A dyno you can trust is pretty awesome.What I found more interesting is the variance in deliver torque lower down in the rpm when then engine was loaded heavily.

Actually not terrible drivetrain loss. Thanks for posting.
