Not to flame, but on another thread, your C55 dynoed 307 as a baseline. Why the discrepancy?

I meant to type 329 and not 319. At any rate the reason for the discrepancy is simple. The first dyno of 307 rwhp was conducted on a "wildly optimistic" DynoJet in Vegas at 2,000 ft. elevation. The second dyno of 329 crank horsepower was conducted in Colorado at Kleemann @ 6,200 ft. elevation. Apparently elevation and other factors of nature definitely make a difference in power.
