#'s - I'll get the details from my engine builder for cam specs. He is very well known for his head port work.

Re: Dyno #'s HP 500
Doc,
Did you keep the stock throttle body or did you install a larger one like the one's that are on the 525's.? Also what about the reprogramming of the ECU.
I'm changing my heads and adding the A/S throttle body to my 500EFI's. I should say I'm adding the entrie 500 EFI upgrade kit from A/S. If I make 550 HP and pick-up some additional Torque from my bolt on I will be happy.

I just dynoed one of my 500 EFI's last week. We changed the heads to World Merlin II's, Rect Port 320 CC. Bumped the compression fro 8.75:1 up to 9.1:1 and kept everything else stock. Of course freshened up the entire motor.
These are the dyno numbers.
4300 RPM HP= 526.9 Torque = 643.6 Ft Lbs (Max Torque)
5200 RPM HP= 598.0 Torque = 604.0 Ft Lbs (Max HP)
The rev limiter kicked in and it was still making horsepower.
Hope this helps for a comparsion.

Re: Dyno #'s HP 500
I am curious, what does a 500efi pull on a Dyno brand new?? Is it just 500hp?? I think you gains are awsome but damn 100+ hp for just working the stock heads? You make me want to pull my 500efi and do it
