I had a few metal shavings on the gear lube drain plug magnet so I decided to swap forward and reverse to use the opposite gears in the Bravo upper (assuming the metal wasn’t from the lower) - so props are spinning in now rather than out. Must be more stern lift as I gained about 400 RPM. 6500 (matching max HP on the dyno)

Good stuff! Love the dynamic of '1980s' look vs. modern technology/engines. Excited to learn more about your pantera/LS swap. DM me on Instagram if you ever have any questions (assuming you follow me with the Lets Scream photos.)
