Larry- Yes, this is RWHP. The dyno operator said he expected about 550-560hp at the flywheel.
I don't expect to see much gain in the hp dept from getting the fuel curve better, but a big jump in torque. The area where it is lean is below 4700 rpm or so, where HP is not yet near peak. I've learned that torque is really what I'm using to pull good E.T's anyway, build good torque and the hp will take care of itself. It will likely be a while before I am able to make the needed corrections to make more pulls, but I'll report back to the list when I do.

If it is, then what is the HP at the flywheel? When you get the fuel mixture dialed in the HP should jump. Larry Devin wrote: > > This was an interesting experience for me.
