As part of my 455 engine build, my builder broke my motor in on his in-house dyno.

Peak HP: 488.9 @ 5100 RPM
Peak TQ: 574.2 ft-lbs @ 3700 RPM

So, 1) No, I do not have the rear wheel numbers. 2) We figured that my TQ peak is actually below 3700 but the SuperFlow machine did not measure below that level. 3) This was on 93 Octane gas which was one of my build requirements.

An in-house dyno was on my list when I was shopping for a builder, but I wasn't too sure I would find somebody in town with one. This particular builder constructed the majority of the engines that were constantly winning on the local circle track, so the shop dyno was a must for him.
