Macrackie - no worries. Only reason we are looking so hard at numbers is it a measurement of gain or loss. You mentioned you new bagger motor gained 10 / 28 if you're happy with the that's what matters. We did my current bagger (05 cvo Electra glide) and it laid down 124 / 126 on the dyno- definite gains of almost 100%. Standing up 1100lbs in second is pretty impressive.

Back to topic - we know we had a solid 30rwhp with the cams only. What were trying to validate is the head gains. Making sure everything is in order is critical to declaring success or a making a change. Butt dyno cam sometimes be misleading - if torque on the bottom end is improved but mid range or top end suffers - if our building a cruiser then the changes were correct.

Just my thoughts on why the delta of the numbers are important to us.
