Andy's dad, engines rated 200 hp too low? 300 hp too low? How do come up with some of this? Man, you are embarrassing yourself.

First of all it is Ron as it says at the bottom of my posts

No Ed you are the one who is embarrassing himself

Now you are making it personal

I do not have time for BS

I get my information from dyno sheets and look at NHRA HP

Any car that can run a second under usually makes 1.5 times the NHRA HP on a DYNO

I have had enough - no more posting until we run

Most of you guys do not have a dog in this hunt anyway

you do realize that the NHRA HP factors are supposed to be an approximation of the the motor was capable of off the showroom floor, not what they make on a dyno in stock trim, right?

Chad, I don't think he does.

You're kidding, right? If you're not, you should be.

So, you want to rate the L-72 427/425 at over 600HP? Okay, fine, but then you can rate the supercharged Cobra Jets at around 750HP, and that's being generous. And your new Viper/Challenger at around 775-825HP. It works both ways, but you might not like that.

We do not need 6, 6.5lb. classes, This new DP has .680 lift cam, big throttle body, cnc'ed heads, aluminum Intake, Milodon oil pan, and a free for all on how you would like to build the rear suspension, I am not real sure but that description to me sounds like a Super Stocker not a Stocker.

I remember when the first LT-1 came out, everybody started to build them, It cost me a division Championship, they were wicked fast, but I was told by a NHRA Official on several occasions, This is what it was like when the 67 camaro came out and kicked everyone's ***, deal with it or build a different combo.
It's wrong what is going on, but it reminds me of what happened to me in 1994 with the LT-1.

I don't blame you Greg for staying around home, but remember 1 thing,you only live once ,and this time you have with your son is special times for him right now, go enjoy them.
