Very impressive! That's going to be a blast! Look at that oil pressure.....very steady for a long stroke motor. What pan is on it?
Give us all the details one more time!
Congratulations!

Nicely done! Just curious, was the barometric really 29.92 or did they just plug that in as a standard number? Thats not a really high number so you should make a little more with higher BP. Either way that engine will overpower most chassis's anyway.

That is impressive! It could be air bleed circuit or even booster type causing the lean outs at 3900 and 5100 rpm? The BFSC goes low and you have a momentary power loss.

Nice build right there!! You should go deep in the 9s with that power and still be cruiseable...
Eventually, my 71 will have a very similar build whenever my 496 gives up..
You're gonna have a blast with that thing.

Once again that pan shows how well it works. What duration is the cam? LSA?
Those monster cube motors are tough to feed at higher RPM....so making all that power down low is going to be a blast with some reasonable gearing. What's the trans and rear gearing going to be?
