Yellow Glide made almost as much on his dyno at home with not even half the mods he has now that was dyno'd on Tracy's dyno.

It was at 256 originally on tracy's dyno...now its a 268....so a 12 HP gain higher in the rpm curve

My estimation, that back home he would be dynoing somewhere between 285 and 295 HP. If the porting does what it is supposed to do, we could expect another 10 to 20 or more at peak....so lets say easily over 300 in my book.

Hopefully power hasn't dropped off lower in the curve though. I think it might be a bit disapointing if power was lower in the lower and mid RPM ranges.....or is that to be expected???

Does this mean that you are continuing the tuning process or is that the best it is going to get until the heads go on?

Speaking in general......cams move power from one rpm range to another.
Gains in one area will (generally) be lost in others.

I kind of assumed that would be the case but wasn't sure if that applied here as well. Appreciate the response

Grape work...would this be a software, hardware or blended vintage?
Can I also ask at what rpm did the curve peak and plateau at 268hp?

Power was still climbing at redline so peak is unknown at this point.

Lol. Things went absolutely crazy at work thurdsay and Friday so as much as I hate to say it this had to take a back seat for a couple of days.

Been lots of PMs with Tracy and Steve: don't worry, things are progressing. Any time you're the first in anything like this there will be bumps in the road. Will update soon.
