Here is the e-mail I recieved from Tim this afternoon. I think it says it all.
Hi Terry, Put a few runs on your baby today and get this. The only standard
pattern low port dyno headers I have are 2" primaries with 31/2" collectors,
(we use 2 3/8" on high port heads with 4 " collector) and we have to run 4
mufflers in the exhaust system to meet local noise bylaws. With your engine
more than a little "corked up", it still made in excess of 906HP! I spent
most of the day sorting out a mid-range over-rich condition, but torque was
still in the 800 foot-pound range. The dyno was overmatched trying to adjust
the load from 4000-7000. When the secondaries opened, we where hitting the
rev limiter so fast it was tough to manage, and power was still climbing
past our shut down speed. We kept running through parts of the power band so
fast that the computor was having quite a time getting a reading. The only
experiment I made was putting Stage V rockers on the exhaust side to replace
the Norris. (you already have Stage V intakes) They seem good for about 20
HP, but I cannot tell if they were just compensating for the restrictive
exhaust, although they do have better geometry. This thing idles smoothly,
hits 900HP @ 6000 rpm, and should still make an easy 950HP uncorked. There
where no water or oil leaks, unlike those pesky Holley carbs. The carbs are
close enough that you will not hurt anything, and with a little tweaking,
you should make more power at your elevation. I haven't down loaded the
camera yet, but I will pass that along. I will go through a final inspection
of the valve train etc, and then button her up for good. The low lift
camshaft will give you pretty good street service, and I think the power
will get the job done. One thing's for sure, if you need more speed at
freshen up time, this package can be tuned to1000HP plus with ease. Tim @

Since no gear head thingy here, thought I would post this is a dual four hemi going into a street car.
