blownbbc, The first thing I would do is put more fuel in it and max out your 60 ft times. You can add fuel until it blubbers on the top end....
Policy Peddler, I use a 70 tooth 8mm pulley on the motor which is the same diameter as the crank trigger wheel. I don't what kind of boost you...
You didn't tell us how hard you were planning to twist it. With that cam, lifters, and push rods you should be good to 8000 rpm. Your set up...
It sounds like your crank trigger is not grounded. You need good RF shielded wires when you run a 44 mag. Leahy can fix you up with any length...
Mac, I stand corrected on the deck height; your right. Make sure you measure the block deck height. You don't need the gas ported pistons with...
Mac, I think you have selected an excellent combo with your new 549 BBC. Please tell us what pump you are planning on running and what is the...
In theory, pistons touching the head might give you the ideal quench, but it can get very costly with aluminum rods. If you over rev the motor...
fcsteve69, I run the same Total Seal ring package as you do at 23 psi boost with no problems. I see that your ring gaps are wider than the...
Thanks Corey for all your help. I'll give Dart a call for the lifter bore angles, I'm sure they will tell me. Joe
Thanks Corey for your input. I haven't looked into the cost difference yet, but at our last race I saw someone break a tie bar in their motor and...
I have a BBC, Dart Pro-1 heads, 11.3 comp, 110 pump, 14-71 Littlefield blower and buzzard hat (~1800 HP). I'm currently using .842 Morel lifters...
It sounds like the black pointer is turning on the shaft. This is usually caused by the sudden force on the red pointer and the viscousity of the...
Money Shot, Have you checked your timing? I'm sure you did, but I want to cover all the bases. When a motor unloads or stops fast like that it...
I quess what I'm asking is does anyone know how much a normal rod stretches, at ~8500 rpm. Engine builders say that you should have between 0.060...
blownfever, If you are raining fuel at idle the first thing that comes to mind is your idle check. Have you checked your idle and port check...
aj481x, Are you saying expansion due to temperature is the major factor and the dynamic forces on rod are negligible? Joe
Good point Dave; are you saying they cancel each other out? Joe
We are all told to allow .060 to .080 for aluminium rod stretch when building an engine, but did you consider the increase in compression ratio...
What is the best way to find your correct AFR for your setup? I was told to change your blower OD by two teeth and leave your fuel alone or...
When I first read the post I thought that the dry ice would freeze the methanol, so I looked it up. To my supprise the temperature of dry ice at 1...
