RE: It ain't over 'til the Max Lady sings



I had a similar experience with my 318 poly on a chassis dyno. It only 
was showing around 150hp at the rear wheels but we couldn't get it to 
run at any decent rpm. That's when the electrical system was bad. It 
missed and popped over 3800/4200 rpm's. Just awful. I've never been able 
to get the guy to give me my 'freebie' run yet. He's either too busy or 
it's broken. I'd like to be able to compare now to later but I don't 
think I can wait any longer to get making the changes for next season. I 
have heard of another dyno nearby but I can't find it???
