Mike,

I don't think that anyone with the exception of myself would have liked to see the wedge out run Dave's Hemi! Or even run with it?

The engine for the Maxie was just freshend up by Mike and I think I have found a little something in the car so maybe it will run a little faster this fall?

But there is no dought the Hemi just runs away from the Wedge upstairs.

Both where very close in power (within 10HP wedges advantage)?

Both cars weight the same?

Maxie runs 133 MPH and the Hemi 139MPH what am I missing???

If you compare the two dyno sheets the answer lies there..

The Maxie makes its peak power relatively early then falls off pretty hard. The Hemi, on the other hand, makes its peak power at a higher RPM and really doesnt fall off. I'd be willing to bet Daves head flows 30% or better than the wedge head. Its all in the design and flow characteristics. Thats my .02 anyway....
