Here is the dyno info (from my dyno) on the stocker I took to the dyno challenge.. I hope to figure out how to post this stuff better, as I have the info from the other engines as well...
Here's the dyno sheet on the AKRA U let me borrow . Is this the same motor ?
Hhhmmm , A 28% difference That might B a sign that U need a new dyno ...LOLThat's OK. On my dyno I'm guessing that the same motor would have made around 9 hp.
Hydraulic, inertia, water brake, or even squirrel cage fans, IMO each will be different, with the goal being continued improvement.

Why would I need that? It repeats it's own readings. If it's readings weren't repeatable, I might agree with you.Hhhmmm , A 28% difference That might B a sign that U need a new dyno ...LOL
So what do we do if we both buy $4-6k dynos from the same place and are still seeing a 20% difference? Just asking.

Since it's only been used for my personal use, I have no reason for a "Marketing Correction Factor."
It's my belief that a competitive clone stocker runs around 10 hp, with my dyno's readings just a tad on the conservative side.
A competitive clone stocker, although blueprinted, is still fairly close to stock specifications, and IMO is not going to make more than 1 hp per cubic inch.
IMO, an interesting test would be to take a single (solidly built) motor and send it around to 10 different places for dyno results, just to see how much the results vary.
And I'd bet that each different place would swear by their results.

LOL , Exactly ..It's like saying "I have a great torque wrench, it reads 30% off though, but I just tighten the bolts until they strip so it's all good"
