We've done some more testing and came up with close to the same results in the 800's hp but the weather conditions are less than desirable so I stopped and am going to regroup on the entire project.
The engine simple is not preforming like it should

. When doing the sweeps it feels as if something {other that the dyno brake} is holding the engine back. On one sweep for an instance it took off and felt like it has in the past, the numbers reflected as much.
My engine timing is 33 yours is much more
I've moved the time 32.5 didn't like that
35 didn't like that. It is difficult for me to read the timing mark is seems to wander up and down on the mark about 1/4 inch back and forth.
I guess that's because of the mds ignition. I've experienced this on other engines so simply time to best et and starting.
my fuel 118
moved spark plugs cooler champion {57's I think}
my inertia settings .36 yours .32
I'm considering going back to the 1.5 rockers.
that's the only main change I've made to the engine other than the new block. In my thinking it should be preforming the same or better with the cylinders not leaking with the old block.
I'm having surgery today on my wrist and hand so everything is going to be on hold for a few weeks.
Thanks for contributing to my post much appreciated.
