Default 840hp/770tq

What's up guy's?
Motor's done finally

Got back from Quest Racingearlier today ( a local engine builder) and it made 840hp/770tq on PUMP gas with a nice safe tune. It made just under 15 psi of boost.

Then we made 925hp/831tq with 100 ocatane unleaded

Thanks go out to Quest Racing and NEDyno for there great work.Nice job.

Here are a coupe of the graphs.Wish I had number from like 2,500 rpm though.I'll put it on the chassis dyno next.I'll know what the drivetrain loss is exactly.I'll get a video up soon.

840 hp pump gas
840 hp pump gas 2
925 hp 100 octane
925 hp 100 octane 2

Sorry guy's check my website for details.

But it's just an old LT1/LT4 motor with ported LT4 heads/intake and a Vortech T-trim making 14.8 psi of boost.Wish I had some more cash for a Hogan intake and a YS-trim and I would probably be over 1000hp.

It does have the LS1 coil pack setup on it though.Probable why it makes so much power. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
I still need to get some pics of the new motor up on my site though.

I noticed that the dyno sheet stated that this was flywheel... Send another dyno when you have get a chance to have a rear wheel dyno done. It would be very interesting to compare your setup with everyone elses.

Very cool... What can you tell us about the motor, what compression? How much timing did you add (if you did) when you put it on 100 octane?

I am building a 348ci YS trim combo and have been wondering what I might be able to do on 100 or 104 unleaded... I will have it pulleyed for 20 lbs of boost.
