Does anyone have a dyno sheet or the factory spec for the 500 non-valved h.p?

They were around 92 hp.

X2. My buddy dynoed one back in 99. At the time his customer was into trying those aftermarket cans on that sled. Only one that was any good was a dynoport can....didn't show any hp loss and actually felt more fun to ride with the can installed opposed to oem.

Hmm,
That interesting.
I didn't realize that they were about the same as the 97-98 xcr 440's

And no where near as finicky tuning wise

I believe this is also interesting, I posted on another forum they were 95 hp and got blasted because apparently they are only 85....

That had be a bad one. Seen one of the fuji 440 twins...i think it was a 95 xcr 440 make about 85 hp after our buddy finished setting it up.

The 92-95 horsepower figure is accurate for the regular XC 500. If I look hard enough through my stacks of old snowmobile magazines, I can probably find some proof for you. When I was looking to trade my wife's '95 XLT, I thought about getting an XC 500 because the regular XC 500 could run with the XLT, and the XC had better suspension. (The XLT 600 put out 90+ horsepower.)

Here are the numbers for the different 500s:

Indy 500 -- 78-80 horsepower starting in 2001 with the updated engine
XC 500 -- 92-95 horsepower (as everyone has already pointed out)
XC 500 SP -- 105 horsepower (VES)

I can vouch for the high horsepower number on the XC 500 SP. My wife has one, and it's faster than Cat's powerful F-5. It'd also give my '98 XC 600 fits, and it stays with my Pro-X up to about 75-80 mph.
