That is not at that wheels. More likely to be about 280 at the wheels.

Re: Dyno test of 3.8

Several have been done over here in the States and a well running 3.8 should put down low 280s to low 290s at the rear wheels (dyno and weather variations)

The best thing about the dyno pull is the scream put out by the 3.8 at full honk

Not true dude - Bexleys have a rolling road - not an engine dyno. They measure at the wheels and 'calculate' flywheel BHP using coast down losses.

Re: Dyno test of 3.8

Cyrus was the one and only. He had big plans to rule the whole of New York City. He assembled all the gangs in The Bronx for a big meeting, and then made his speech, telling the gangs about his plan. This is his dream, and how it ended ...
Cyrus - Can you count suckers? I say the future, is ours! If you, can count.

Crowd Member - Come on Cyrus, we're with you!

Crowd Member - Go ahead bro!

Cyrus - Now look what we have here before us. We've got the Saracens sitting next to the Jones Street Boys. We've got The Moonrunners, right by The Van Cortlandt Rangers. Nobody is wasting nobody. That is a miracle, and miracles, is the way things ought to be.

[Some crowd cheers]

Various Crowd Shouts - "Yeah!", "All right", "I heard that!" and "Take it on Cyrus! Whoo!"

[Cyrus climbs up the platform]

Cyrus - "You're standing right now with a nine delegates, from a hundred gangs and there's over a hundred more. That's 20,000 hardcore members, 40,000 counting affiliates and 20,000 more not organised but ready to fight. 60,000 soldiers! Now there ain't but 20,000 police in the whole town. Can you dig it?

[Small crowd cheer]

Cyrus - Can you dig it?

[Louder crowd cheer]

Cyrus - Can you dig it?

[Crowd roar and cheer]

Cyrus - Now here's the sum total. One gang could run this city. One gang! Nothing would move, without us allowing it to happen! We could tax the crime syndicates, the police, because we got the streets suckers! Can you dig it?

[Crowd cheer and police cars roll quietly into the park]

Cowboy - Right on!

Cyrus - The problem in the past has been the man turning us against one another. We have been unable to see the truth, because we've been fighting for ten square feet of ground. Our turf, our little piece of turf. That's crap brothers. The turf is ours by right, because it's our turn. All we have to do is keep up the general truce. We take over one borough at a time. Secure our territory, secure our turf, because it's all our turf!

[Crowd cheer and more police cars roll into the area]




Sorry Cyrus......very very off-topic.....but i couldn't resist! ....The Warriors is one of my favourite movies of all time


been wanting to do that for ages

cheers, Scorchio ......coat retreived.....im gone
