IIRC he said he was getting really bad spark knock at around 5,600 RPM when he let off to recalibrate to make a safe run since it wasn't running right at all. Most likely the damage was done on the way to the dyno since the MSD box we had hoped would be used to retard spark never worked right. Stupid MSD box has never worked right since he got the stupid thing.  I'll let Rick post the less than adequate numbers if he wishes, but I won't report on an ailing motor...
