From reading, it looks to be a engine dyno. That dyno # is very simular to the #'s generated back when his motor was made. He should be happy, the power is nearly the same with lower compression. Although his power should be closer to 400 hp and the 400+ tq. It is relatively easy to make a engine that produces the same hp as the cubic inchs.

Snowman,
Just another warning, you really need to do your homework, not sure if the SPA manifold will be a good fit in your chassis with a 250. I think the turbo will be a conflict with your steering. My chassis is nearly the same, except mine has a 292 which is nearly 2" taller. My turbo barely clears the steering. Tom

With that said your 250 with some boost will certainly give your dad a run for the money. You will probably burn less gas with normal driving. Your engine will get more attention than his too.
