"I thought we decided comparing results from different dynos was “iffy” at best. Maybe I misunderstood."
Murf In addition to the potential different results from different engine dynos, how about comparing actual engine dyno results from a computer simulation program. Example, I know on the Performance Trends Engine Analyzer v3.2 program on the input you can use either "Standard" or "SAE" Dyno settings for the running conditions/weather. If using the Standard setting it will give you much higher numbers. Using a Performance Trends program I also found the results can suggest peak power at a higher rpm than the actual engine dyno results. Actual intake manifold runner lengths and runner volumes for input are necessary, no guesses. Same with cylinder head flow with input at the proper valve lift as required in the instructions. And actual carb cfm, not what they might be rated at. Etc, etc. NO GUESSES ! You need to know the specs of your engine combination for accurate results. Now the question are the results from a computer or did the OP have the engine tested on a actual engine dyno. .
