Really - 20%?  Has anyone else had this experience?  I think I'll need a blower...or nitrous..or something...

  Dear Will,


Some time back there were several postings of engine dyno 
results on the dyno stand and on a chassis dyno. IIRC the average loss of 
measured horsepower from the dyno stand to the chassis dyno was about twenty 
percent loss. .
Discussion was extensive as to where the twenty percent 
went: exhaust system restrictions, internal ZF friction, or etc. No 
consensus was reached except that there is an undeniable difference between 
the dyno stand and sitting in your Pantera and that the sink for the twenty 
percent loss contains various potential culprits.

Warmest regards, Chuck Engles
