Actual HP...
Ron, I was surprised when I ran the numbers so far! Your 452 RWHP comes in at 587 FWHP! This is assuming a 23% driveline loss.
Is this correct? If so then the combo seems to be working! I'm not sure if you can make the 650HP you seek without going roller? Ron wrote... " I wanted to swap to 1.65 rockers and see results but things just weren't working right. I have another cam to swap to this winter and am looking to still be on target for 500+ RWHP to start next season." The reason I say this is 650 minus 23% is 500.5
I think it's very possible to get 600 FWHP as there are a few guys on PY getting there! Congratulations and keep up the good fight! Good luck! JD
