Without looking back in your build, I'll guess 412. I guess I'm going to "waste" a few hours reading your build thread. It looks interesting from this end of the time line.

These are rear wheel #s not crank #s

The Dyno ended up breaking 2 pulls before mine. They did some work to temporary fix it for the rest of the day. After talking with the guy who was in front of me yesterday said after fixing it correctly they can tell the numbers are low because they retested the Truck that was in line before me, once it was fixed and it came up with much higher numbers.
Looks like I'll need to retest it.

I'll give you a hint, the race Truck has 275 HP at the crank and it only puts down 124 HP 188 torque to the ground. 400HP to the ground would mean I had like 550-600HP

So it's a stroker and only puts that out? That's a lot of money for a gain of only 50hp.

The race Truck has a stock 302. The Prerunner is the one with the 347 we just dynoed, I was giving the numbers of the race Truck to let everyone know how far off they are in guesses. The 347 is putting out a lot more hp then the 302 and nearly double the torque.
