Thanks for the info Tulkas -

Interesting. Your gains are impressive for the LY7 - picking up 30 rwkw. Granted I didn't check conversion rates but doing a simple calc of 252 (rwhp Tracy recorded) / 137 (your baseline rwkw) = 1.83 and 1.83 x 30 = 54.9 rwhp gain - which I think is a bit overly optimistic - granted this is not taking in to account the differences between dynos / tunes, etc. I can speculate all I want to but until the new cams are in and dyno'd...

If we end up with a 45hp gain - I think Tracy and Steve will be very busy... and I will be very busy cruising...

** I did find the conversion factor - rwkw * 1.34 = rwhp.
Tulkas baseline of 137 rwkw = 183.58 rwhp
Cam gain of 30 rwkw = 40.2 rwhp
