What I learned for max power is to remove your cars fans and use as little oil in your engine as possible

It was awful nice of Robert Duvall to take time out of his busy acting work schedule to come in and run your dyno for you. 🤟🏻🤟🏻

Would be nice if these guys did more daily motors. Not everyone chasing hp has a ( little) 600 hp motor. Help the 180 hp guy get to 230.

Subaru must have figured this out already... mine constantly "auto corrects" its level to have only a 1/2 quart in the pan every week,

Well which fan was best? I only saw results from two of the four candidates.

Drag racers have done an alternator cut off switch. Just unplug the field wire.

So my rear main seal is actually a power adder. 1 more excuses not to fix it then.

Something I've done on a lot of my vehicles is ditching the stock clutch driven fan for a two speed electric fan mounted in the factory radiator shroud.  My butt dyno has always told me that it makes a difference, but I am curious as to how much the electric fan might tax the alternator.  I hope the effort, and money, wasn't wasted, lol.  I don't think it was.

I was hoping to see the oil pressure graph from the last run on the dyno.
