I have also seen Tom's rockers and I have nothing like those issues.
Mind you, I think the Stage V product is quite superior......

Hi, Dave.

It was a personal favour from Nick and Rob - they do not run Dyno sessions on a commercial basis; they only Dyno engines that they have built.
This was made very clear to me.

They probably don't like the configuration effort, and mop ups!

Well, you will be disappointed, Mossy.

The figures are not spectacular in the big scheme of things, and never will be; but at least I understand why.

I was shooting for reliability and repeatability, not big numbers.

I have yet to pull the valve covers and check for signs of over-heating Push Rods after the full power Dyno run.

I pulled the covers and did the lash after the run in and first pull.
Everything was as sound as a pound, but we had not leaned on it hard at that point.

You will probably hear the sighs of relief (or anguish) on Friday......

Sure I won't be disappointed at all Pete.
As you say , it's been built with the intentions you highlighted.
I find it interesting how things are built , and how they perform to the goal in mind.

Remember my bikes first dyno run when fresh built.
I had a lot of help from Ray Debben ( of pro stock fame ) , on my choice of parts to what I was trying to achieve.
We expected around 115 rear wheel bhp , but was running very warm on the day !!!
Pulled the rocker , and all looked good.
A full pull reached 107 bhp , with a good curve of power. Only slightly leaning out at the higher rpm.
Certainly not nice to watch though !!!!!

Fingers crossed for you mate. :thumbright:
