Dyno Results Available

Here's my dyno results from last Saturday.  The coast down measurement
registered 18-20% drive train loss, so that puts my rough crank HP
at the low end of what I expected, which is 160hp...not a bad thing
really.  I am also fairly confident that the HP and torque will improve
greatly when the engine stops running out of fuel at around 6000rpms. :)
Fuel enrichment devices needs finishing!!!  Maybe I should just go
full Motoronic...an argument for another day perhaps...

The engine is a torque beast (IMHO) and makes more then 100 ft-lbs
from 2150 rpms until 6600 rpms.  More then 120 ft-lbs from 3950 until
the HP peak at 5750.  Like I said before, HP is for bragging (which
is important, don't get me wrong :}) but torque wins races baby.

I'll punch the numbers into a spreadsheet and graph them together,

Let me know what you guys think.
