Those are some big power numbers for a 454 with boat friendly compression and a reversion free camshaft.

I for sure was not expecting to lay down those numbers my goal was 550 or so but he over delivered! I was more than happy about the outcome! Should make this ol heavy girl move along nicely all things considered!

Whatcha mean man?

The banner shows “corrected power” above the numbers. There should be a correction factor recorded somewhere on the sheet.

The correction factor takes into consideration deviations from configuration specifics that are baked into the dyno’s calculations. It accounts for temperature, barometric pressure, and so on.

Not trying to rain on the parade, but those are pretty big numbers for a 460 that will be tolerant of a heavy pleasure boat. Yours are making about 1.35 lbs ft per cube. 1.20 would probably be a more expected number - I’d look to see if the correction factor was turned up and then ask why. This is well into 500+ CID territory and very impressive.

Only asking because others will surely want to duplicate what you’ve done here, myself included.

Getting a little closer excuse the mess

Hell yeah man, good solid numbers. I bet your psyched! Id also be interested in that correction factor. I was sure these were 500+” with those numbers!
