383 rebuild - kinda whimpy on the dyno?

It was pretty much leveled off at 5300 so I wouldn't think exceeding that would provide anything useful. Also whether it was 9:1 or 11:1 it's lazy for the sum of the parts. At least IMO.

started leveling off at 4800/4850, from that point torque took a nose dive.
Reacts like a low compression engine with a poor flowing head.
