Just a word of caution when comparing Dyno runs posted here. There are a number of variables which have to be accurately controlled with the dyno setup in order to make accurate comparisons.
In the first two charts posted, if you look closely you will see that the first chart from Terp84 was done with the dyno running SAE mode. This is the preferred dyno mode setting. The second chart posted by NA7A was done with the dyno set to STD mode. There is nothing really wrong with STD but it will produce numbers somewhat higher than would result when run SAE.
This is not meant to rain on anyone's parade, just be aware that Dyno charts from different machines, different operators of varying capabilities and different settings all will produce non-comparable results.
I was wonderin when you were gonna Pipe up Sharkey! Everytime I see that dyno sheet of yours.... Makes me start trollin for a nice set of Thunderstorm cores...
