So, who you gonna believe? The (H.P.) "numbers", or the guy who INVENTED them? Beyond the fact that the D501 woulda kicked the A-- of the 56 D-500-1 , ( & the 56 D-500-1 MIGHTA been faster than the 57 Super D500 ) nobody (beyond "The Shadow") really knows what 'numbers' these engines REALLY produced!---but, ya know, "The Factory" shoulda dyno'ed the 50's/60's engines! Too bad there is no-one with factory documentation, to show what the "blue-printed" engines woulda 'made'. btw, I forget the 'real' H.P. numbers, but the 60's 426 c.i. engine ACTUALLY made, what? 550 H.P. (@ the flywheel)?
