There are a few dyno charts with some engine info on the 6pack web site.
Hopefully this link will work.

It would be nice to get more, and more data. I plan to dyno mine later this
fall and will submit it for the records.

9.6:1 head, no porting
SS valves, 3 angle grind, and 1.55:1 roller rockers, tubular pushrods
GP2 cam
Block overbored +.020 and zero decked, recut recesses
Everything balanced.
Electric fan
3xdcoe Webers
Stock manifold and exhaust at the moment
Stock flywheel

I would add replacing the snout fan with an electrical one, light weight
flywheel, and engine balance to that list.
A few people have dynoed  their
sixes, hopefully they'll speak up.

My
goal is to improve
performance up to 5000 RPM. I'm leaning toward the
Goodparts triple carbs (ZS
or HS6), a mild cam, and a compression bump to
9.5:1. The car has a 6-2-1
header feeding into a single 2.25" free flow
exhaust. Crane XR700 ingnition,
Lucas Sport Coil, stock dizzy. Would having
the head flowed be worthwhile?
