Gary's car was waaaaay down on hp and tq, it was amazing that he was competitive at all. Mine was down to what it should be as well. When we first got on the dyno mine was 178hp and 171 tq. The big problem was that my AFR was waaaay off at 18. We richened up the mix to help and I ended up at 190 hp and 178 tq at the wheels which I think is pretty much exactly where it should be on a rebuilt engine.

I wouldn't use those numbers for anything except to compare them with all the cars we dyno'd that day. Dyno's can vary quite a bit, what we were looking for is an honest comparison of 5 D class cars that were there that day along with a SPBox and some others. These engines are balanced and blueprinted and are cam timed and ignition timed to Dan Jacobs's specs. My car was out of whack with timing and injector issues, once repaired it matched Sean's and John Bare's almost exactly.

like Gary said, directional numbers but not that much a stretch on a blueprinted/dyno tuned engine (think $$$).
For comparison, when I first ran NASA I dyno'd my car with the stock 86,000 mile engine and headers at 174 hp and TQ at the wheels - basically stock crank numbers at the wheel on a from the factory engine with headers.
I have said it before and I'll say it again. I'm an advocate for a dyno at every PCA race. I'll be first in line.
