I always like to double check and run my time and mph through Larry Meaux's PipeMax.


Thanks Stan. Your numbers look to be more realistic. Any time time I have tried the Moroso calculator on my numerous cars it is off by 2 tenths(fast).

Remember the Moroso calculator is telling you how much HP or ET at DA = 0. If you are running at any other DA you need to use a Correction Factor on the HP. Your engines starting line HP would be like the measured HP on a dyno that then needs to be corrected for weather.
