Is that at 3 or 4 bar? I have the same injectors for my sometimes-e85 ls7 build if that is at 4 bar.

 

I will find out tomorrow.

 

Injectors are 4 bar.
I just found out.

 

Cool, yeah. Same injector size I'll be running. Can run 100% e85 up to ~800 horsepower.

 

800hp NA?

 

Yes NA. E85 at 800hp and 80% duty cycle requires ~735cc/min injectors at 58psi.

 

Paging Bortous, come in Bortous. Where is the start up video?

 

he must be getting close

 

Not quite there yet sir.
I should have some pics of a complete engine very soon.
I will request a first start up video today also.
Over and out.

 

If you got any fresh engine ****, post up?!

 

As soon as I get some **** I will post it here.

 

Thanks!

 

I have two photos to post:

​​Engine should be installed back in the vehicle by the end of the week and fired up next week sometime.
Delays delays.

 

Fresh engine ****?

 

Yes.
These are the latest photos.

 

Nice motor by the way. How much do you think that bare block weighs with caps?

 

probably close to an lsx block so say 227 pounds according to Dart.

 

Thanks.
It's a beauty.
According to Dart it weighs 227lb but unsure if that is just the bare block without the caps.

 

bare block with main caps which i think is similar to lsx at 220 pounds or so.

 

I have a question. I know I asked it in Speedtiger's thread and I don't remember the answer. I thought the 6-bolt mains were suppose to keep the crank study. This was why the cast cranks took so much abuse. Is this not true? I take it the 4-bolt mains in the DART block are just a better design /better material? Just trying to understand this.

thanks in advance to whomever responds.
