"It happens that we dynoed our long-term 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS on this very dyno last year. That's pretty much an ass-kicking, particularly in the midrange where the 392 wallops the Camaro's LS3 V8 by some 100 lb-ft.
I have said it before and I will say it again. You can't compare chassis dyno numbers from two completely different cars on two completely different dyno's on two completely different days. Way too many variables one of them being the drivetrain loss will be different.
