What I remember is the article was in either Hot Rod or Car Craft and that it was done at Dick Landy's shop. I don't recall it making much different than advertised, and considering DLI's connection w/ Mopar Performance, wouldn't expect it to for the purpose of a magazine article.

Anybody else recall that there were two (2) different versions of the MP 500 crate engines offered w/ Stage VI heads? The first one was rated at 545 HP, then IIRC they switched from 1.5 to 1.6 rockers and re-rated it to 575 HP. The rumor I heard years ago was that one of these "575 HP" engines was dynoed OOB at Ray Barton's shop... and wasn't even close to the advertised #.
