So John, are you saying they didn't make the 450 like they claim in the Moparmuscle/Westech article? I was unaware of this if thats the case.



I need to see the original build of the engine and I need to know WHEN that engine was run at Westech . 450 is definitely possible , but I'm curious as to the compression ratio of that engine .





John the compression was supposed to be 9.2:1. It was a September 2002 issue. I would have guessed the engine made 400-420 horse, they dynoed it at [Email]455@6000[/Email] rpm, which was the highest rpm tested. I thought the dyno doesn't lie I guess they must have done it but I've always been skeptical, it just seems a little to easy to make 450 horse with a 383 after reading the article. Maybe a happy dyno is the reason. Heres the article, let us know if the dyno was happy or not.
