Stuff all development was done as both time it was just to run in and get a figure as they were both favours and each time I went back to Lakeside with the gas analizer installed to check the jetting
Also the only time I ran it on a Dyno Dynamics it showed 160.8hp which backed up the figurees we always got from Greg's when it read Clydesdales at 161hp and all of them were at the cam timing setting so they didn't have the hollw in the 7's but had a bigger hollow at t he 4500-5000 range
Paul you should point out to the guys that you wont get 200hp out of a Ford block or head as you physically can't get the air in and out and you also need the 2lt capacity to do it
