I may be a bit late to this ( been focusing on getting my car running and not the forums )
Our builds are about identi-chokes- Not really, I don't have awesomeness :(
But, I noticed, why does the gear ratio keep changing in all 4 runs? I thought it's suppose to stay the same.
Also smoothing: 5, seems like a lot. I'm no expert on this stuff though, just trying to understand it.
Sorry if it seems I'm critiquing.

The operator is shifting the car, bring it up to 5th gear (1:1 direct gear on Soviets 6-speed). The run starts in 5th, the previous shifts are not recorded, thus why they're lazy, and at low rpm. The operator hits a button, when he's ready, and the recording/measuring starts.
EDIT: Soviet, damn you. Now I'm stuck on page two, like a moron.

My theory-crafted day dream setup is nearly what youve built. Great work. Our motors are pretty similar, only differeces being your flattop vs my honda IM.
To the peanut gallery: How much topend would one be giving up by stepping down to a 6258?
