Brian the owner of the shop, JAP automotive, (811 hp 4 cyl Nissan 240 5 sec 1/8's) holding the optical pickup for the dyno. When the car jumped it came off in mid pull.

This is the highest HP by far the dyno has seen, the blow through on the carb keeps an awesome 10.8 a/f mixture the whole pull. Chris (Camaro owner) is great on the calibration of the fuel curves and tricking the injectors into lowering the a/f ratio and then tweaking it through the RPM range, if they lean out you can hang it up...

ALL I KNOW IS THERE is a chassis dyno less than 2 miles from me door to door!!!
