I wonder how many horses are lost thru the years on our 20+ yr Mondials? Like in this Top Gear episode of 1970s supercars on the dyno test, where did all the horses go? ...and don't blame it on a miss fire, lol. Has anyone recently gotten a Dyno Result lately and how did it fare? [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ew5cPCYuA9o]Budget Supercars part 2 - Top Gear - BBC - YouTube[/ame] .......Rolling Road, aka Dyno......... Dino 308gt4 255hp = 194 loss 61 Lamborghini Urraco 220hp = 117 loss 103 Maserati Merak 190hp = 80 loss 110
Mine was Dyno'd in August and if im not mistaken, it registered at 285. I'll have to look but im pretty sure thats right.
So did you lose 15 horses, I don't know how to read a dyno result. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFVJbWO5vAk]Bradan Mondial 3.2 Dyno Test 2 - YouTube[/ame] The first is from a T Dyno Result. The second is from Russ's Dyno jet 3.2 w/ Webers before we cleaned up the mixture and smoothed out the curves. Pretty good for 3.2 liters and ancient technology.

Mike, my Dyno test is in my Bradan thread, but i'm not too interested in revisting it I believe i did lose 15hp. I wonder how to get them back.
LoL, lets not go there... I'm pretty sure my car has let a few escape as well. As far as how to get them back, that's like asking how I wish I was 25 again isn't it??? I can live with mine, I don't race so it doesn't matter. cheers
