Would it be possible for anyone out there to run a desktop dyno program on the following paramaters. I know it's not a buick (it's for my brother in law). It's his new big block Chevy he's having built for his pulling truck (extremely redneck, but pretty fun). If anyone could run the numbers for this combo it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I ran the engine through. Here's what I got: 639 HP at 6000 rpm 634 TQ at 4500 rpm Sounds like a healthy engine. Good luck to him. Phil
Just out of curiosity, what software were you using? When it gives you the data back, does it give estimates at different power levels, or does it just give you peak numbers? I'm not real familar with any of the software, and was kind of curious how it works. From what I have read, the accuracy seems to be pretty good on the majority of the programs. Thanks, Brett Schmahl
It's DeskTop Dyno 2000. If I were more computer literate I'd learn how to attach a file and post it here. Sorry. It gave power numbers from 2000-10,000 rpm. Nice bell curve for both HP and TQ peaking at the numbers I said earlier.
Phil, Thanks for the help. I sure wish I could see those graphs. I do appreciate you taking your time to run a simulation. Does anyone else know how attach the graphs to this thread? Is anyone else running a different program? What do you get? Brett
I use a screen capture program and attach them as JPEGs. If Phil sends me the files, I can capture and post them.
