I was wondering your thougts 1 Year, 11 Months ago  
i went on a mayors ride today....about 1400 bikes
at the end when we got back to town
there were many vendors..booths etc

one bike shop had a protable Dyno and charged $25 for 3 passses
so i put mine on
I have an '03 1600, S&S air cleaner re jetted, ( though i cnat remember what size )
stage 3 exhaust, and ported manifold

the results were as follows ...........
67.5 HP and 308.37 ft.lb of torque

There's a Road Star on Ebay right now with 180+RWHP. Runs 10.3's on street tires... I wonder what the torque #'s are on that one...

Standby for incoming fire Rick!

Your torque number is way off, but if it were right, I'd find what brand rear tire your running and go buy stock in that company.

Maybe that was inch pounds of torque??? Your torque should have been around 90-98ft.lb.

Well mabe if your sheet has the companys letterhead name you can contact them and see what the discrepancy might be? Mabe the FT.LB's is in metric something or other, becaus your talking stout small block numbers there.

IMHO the HP also sounds high for a 1600 with the mods you have.
