It makes DG happy.

I was under the impression we were building motors to compete in the 3500 -7000 rpm range. But if 4800-7500 is apples to apples in your guys eyes looks like I got beat pretty good on hp.

I guess the rules changed over the past year while we were waiting for Flash's motor

My dinosaur did make the best peak torque by a couple of lbs and avg torque is pretty much a wash depending on what rpm range you work off.

So I'm stoked on my feeble 700hp 642ft lb dinosaur.

The salt is fine with a little lime and a Pacifico or Victoria. Keep it coming if you like.

We did. But professional engine builders don't let customers run the dyno.... in their basement..... with the gimp tied up around the corner.

So you know I didn't get a 3500 and up dyno run. So the closest I got is 3900 to 7000. Post up your average torque in that range since the HP war is a lost cause.

Avg torque 3900 to 7000 = 595.9

(range on the sheet is 3900 to 6500 so I had to manually calc it)

Does this mean we won't be having group Starbucks first thing in the mornings anymore??

Of course we will. But we won't be going ANYWHERE that Brian recommends afterwards.

Really DG? You think that answers the question. Your torque peak is at 5700 rpm. So if we say your optimum torque curve is within 2600 rpm 1300 above and below that peak your range is 4400 to 7000. Great for you we both ran dyno runs in that range cuz dyno owners and operators don't like beating on their dynos at low RPM.

For me my torque peak was at 4900 so using the same logic that is 3600-6200. I don't have any E85 Dyno #s from 3600 to 4500.

At 4500 my motor on E85 made 40 lbs more torque than my first gas dyno test run at 4500. In otherwords my 3600-4400 data is Sh if you feel good about it use those #s and you will probably win but considering on your best hp run you posted your motor was down 2lbs of torque from my peak I don't think that tells the true story.

That would make as much sense as us saying whoever had the best #s at say 4500 rpm is the winner. I like that one

FE , ,SB2.2
TQ HP, ,TQ HP
635.3 547.2, ,558.1 478.2

If that car ever runs then there is a way to settle this.

I'm with you on the Victoria beer. Keep the lime.

My actual dinner @ "THE SALT LICK"....













And my guess is --- on track with these two --- we're going to see a whole lotta this....
