Rant: Horsepower/muscle car tv shows

I didn't see the show, as I got rid of cable three years ago. From the sound of it, the cam was ground 8 degrees retarded or the dyno operator forgot to apply a load... maybe both.

On the bright side: the viewers that regard this crap as gospel will have drastically lowered expectations for Mopar iron. At least they strayed from the typical solution of tossing a [expletive deleted]ing 350 plastered with a bunch of marketing-based-dress-up-crap into the thing.

I too used to derive much joy from mocking the "tighten the boats to spec" guy.
