My doomed 408 build

Good gravy! The last thing the original poster needs is a stupid argument about dynos! He needs good advice on how to get his Parts together and even get his motor running good. The stupid subject has been beat over the cows so many freaking times I can't even believe it. can we just start a different thread and have the argument out for the millionth time somewhere else??? the machine shop where I had mine done also does all kinds of exotic Motors this that and the other and has dino. I've been there many of times watching Motors get revved to the moon so the new owner can have a warm fuzzy feeling of knowing exactly how it ran in that atmosphere on that day with that load with those headers blah blah blah under those certain conditions that will definitely be not the exact same conditions that are in your car. I remember one day when my car was running a half-second slower and I thought I'd lost a cylinder or something was completely wrong? Come to find out I went to the atmosphere calculator and sure enough the conditions in the air were so bad that that's exactly what I should have been running a half a second less...
