Default Re: Actual HP for an L-78

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: COPO PETE</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I think that sounds resonable. If you had retarded the cam 6 degrees, put 40 degrees timing in and took it to 7000, you would have found the peek at around 6300 rpm, but maybe not with the 70 intake. Also, every dyno is different, and a hugh difference if you dyno in the winter or in summer on a hot hot day.

Just as an FYI [your mileage may vary!]...our L72 liked 38 total, but you nailed the 6300 peak! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
