So many variables.........
not least of which is the dyno you have it tested on Wink
I've seen figures of 120 to 135bhp on standard SB's BUT........I've not had the "big bore" on a dyno yet Shocked

Cheers rob, mines showing 130 so not too bad. Engine only just hit the run in miles so may increase when engine freed up..?

deja ve Shocked

Sure we've been here before Laughing

I think the SB6 could use another 30bhp at least Wink

Of course, I'm working on the theory that.......too much power is never enough Shocked

...not the theory of.......I haven't got much power but if I tell everyone it's plenty, they might believe me Laughing
