It COULD have 600hp and run 12's. or it COULD have 450hp and run 11's. Dyno numbers are great, but don't mean much going down the track. Just tell people you never had it dynoed.

I will tell some people how much HP the motor in the car made if I have those results and trust the dyno. I have also said "not enough" more than once As already pointed out, any bad component can slow the car down below what other cars run with the same parts and power at the track the same day

If you didnt care to dyno it when you built it, then it shouldnt matter now either. If your happy with it, it runs good, then it really doesnt matter. Have fun with it.

What's it run and what's it weigh I've never taken it to the track so don't have any numbers. If you didnt care to dyno it when you built it, then it shouldnt matter now either. If your happy with it, it runs good, then it really doesnt matter. Have fun with it. Definitely happy with it...I didn't dyno it because I didn't have a goal HP wise and trying to find time was difficult. I was just curious and don't want to be the guy with stock small block with an intake and headers quoting 700hp 🙄. Anyway, I figured some people on the board may have had a similiar engine setup that they actually took the time to dyno theirs.
