Subject: DML: Top End Dyno Blunder...

a couple of weeks back I finally slapped the new Dakota on the Dyno at a
local mustang shop (dealin with the devil hehehe) Anyways I got 199 RWHP
uncorrect at 5400 Ft (about 243 corrected) BUT at about 4700 RPM it just
fell flat on it's face

The HP and Torque didn't fall off like most dyno sheets I have seen, it just
stopped climbin... and made a funny jagged line

It did this 4 times! WTF!!! Someone is saying it's my Factory beer keg
manifold, so I am plannin on gettin a M1, but what else?

Anyways It's got P&P head, Manifold, TB, Jacobs Ignition, JBA Headers,
Flowmaster Ex, CatCo Cat, and some other goodies (to tired this mornin...)

I am depressed, it way pullin DAMNED strong, and then just flatened off WTF!
I have since been shifting at about 4900 and I have noticed I am going
faster than I was before (shifting just after peak is how I've always been
taught to race) BUt damn, I got so much more in it, I can feel it, it pull
like a damned desiel till then!

HELP

Greg
