Horsepower claims, Top speed and Accuracy of Dynamometers

[Paddy]

Interesting thread guys, I'm just about to start a full rebuild on a Darmah engine that will end up an SS engine so i will be looking at the cam timing for sure now.

Note that this was for roundcase twins. My experience is that the accuracy of squarecase engineering was better, but still not beyond some improvement.

Its me who should be apologising since i clearly lead you into this trap !! I think of a Darmah as a clever attempt of joining two singles together in an attempt for us singles guys to infiltrate twins forums -)
I will repent by saying three hail Mach1's

PS
This link shows how to do it on a square case without a off set woodruff key
