After break in they re-torque the heads, change the oil, and check valve lash (dont know why, hydro, but whatever) He changes the timing and jetting, thats about all the tuning he can do. Dont worry, I'll be posting the #'s

Well, heres the #'s, 581hp, 539tq. Motor ran sweet, NASTY idle. Who would have thought that a 1000cfm would be close to too small, had to jet up a couple of times. Cant post #'s, will email to someone to post for me (suck at internet) file is too large.
Mike.

FWIW, heads,intake are out of box, and numbers are on pump gas with 30 degrees total timing.

Cool, everybody is getting dynoed right now. I just got mine done today and you came close to me. My numbers are at the wheels, but they estimated my flywheel to be 625 horses, and 670 ftlbs.
