It's so great and well deserved to get that honor. I will have to pick up a copy to keep.

Sorry, I should have put WEB page not magazine. I don't know if it is in the hard copy magazine. If it is though, I will buy a copy also.
Thanks,
Lenny

Thanks Lenny! I didn't even see this until Patrick C shared it on a Facebook. No idea how they found it. I only posted the video last night after cleaning off my phone and realizing that it was still on there. That video and the other video were both videos that I took during the CAR FIX episode shooting, but I wasn't supposed to post anything until after the episode aired. Kind of just forgot about them.
Here's the other video that the magazine didn't have:

So what did the dyno readings say?That is correct. I was told that if I wanted to keep going that they could map it further and get more at the wheels, but I was already sweating bullets from going so hard on the transmission with only the upgraded input shaft coupler. Now that I have my new input shaft, I'd be a lot more confident doing multiple runs to squeeze the extra power out. I'm also in the process of planning out my fuel system to use the Bosch 044 Racing fuel pump. They were pretty adamant that I needed a fuel pump that delivered at least 300lph, to reduce the need for fuel trimming with the injectors (injectors having to stay open longer). Once the new pump system is finished, I'm hoping to do another dyno day.One of the videos say "425 whp"....

That is a serious 3digit power volume!
Sorry I have not seen what you have done to the Delo in improve handling but I do wonder what gripping that wheel feels like when your foot gets heavy on the pedal...
