What was the final result of the four-barrel ARDUN dyno test?

306 horsepower, with no issues with the engine whatsoever; Steve says it ran superb, and that he would not be nearly as happy if they had had trouble. He calls it very exciting and satisfying to have the test completed. Steve says the peak came at 5700 RPM; the published description gives 5600 RPM.
