I had dyno depression after running my 65 289 up at a local spot. Made something like 300lbft torque but only 160hp, which was way lower than expected and didn't align with butt dyno:D Realised the auto gear we used was wrong and not 1:1, also he had some issues correctly reading rpm so the numbers were all over the place. He had no idea about classics, so in hindsight it was to be expected:doh:

Auto's in all honesty can be a royal pain in the rear on a dyno, the auto can be hard to lock into a gear on a dyno as the car thinks something is wrong when front wheels do not turn, though Alans dyno can turn front wheels so should have more luck with Auto's.
