HP and Tourqu numbers

Had a chance to run on a mobile dyno, and these where the numbers:
in 4th gear on Mustang Dynamometer on 6/30
Max Power 250.7 @ 2155 RPM / 59.9 MPH
Max Torque 668.3 @ 1886 RPM / 52.6 MPH

ran 256/613 at suncoast last Feb. When another turn on full load screw and advanced the timming more. torque went up but HP was down some? do these numbers look right. I thought that hp number would be higher. could I not be getting enough fuel at high RPMs? Fuel lift pump? VE pump? what do you guys think.

5th gear would've loaded the engine better and given you better numbers.

Mustang Dyno is a load dyno so you should see an incerease in torque numbers. The only thing I don't like about a Mustang is they allow for too much operator input. My personal favorite is the Dyno Dynamics Dyno - it gives you a load factor with less operator input.
