Good question on the RPM fall back number. I'll have to pull some runs and check. The engine made 1038 HP at 7200 rpm on the 4th pull but the dyno water pump had a problem after that run, and I wasn't able to get another pull at a higher rpm. The HP numbers were still climbing on the 7200 rpm pull. We called it a day and I've never dyno'd it again. No on the tire spin. I hooks well with very little to no wheel spin. I'll get the RPM fall back number and repost
