Hey Tom, how about that video.

Freiburger, I see you got SEMA Media person of the year. Congrats. Nice orb.

This statement has made it all over the other forums. No one on this site has ask, so either they are used to the numbers or don't want to ask. There are some questions on the other sites. But the main one is the timing and boost numbers. I am not flaming or calling B.S, but allot are questioning the timing. I am not looking for trade secrets, but how about some thoughts on why this engine set-up can run timing abnormally higher than most in boost.

Most are saying this is at least 8 degrees more than usual and some even more than that. 8 degrees alone is allot of power to be had if it is indeed there.
Me.... I have a single T76, and on pump gas can run no more than 24 degrees with 11.5-11.8 A/F. I know that because mine is sitting on the engine stand now with burned pistons and some funny looking build-up on a combustion chamber.

I am just learning so anything you say I will store for further use.

I do have a couple of question that would help me.
1)Do you normally run this amount of timing?
2)What is piston depth in the hole?
3) Does the combustion chamber of that head require that much timing to be efficient?

Thanks in advance for any knowledge you share.

I know you are not bashing Tom, just questioning the timing. If you doubt him, I am sure David Freiburger, who was present for all the dyno pulls would be a pretty good reference to ask.

Tom, thanks for replying back. I am no hater... If you noticed I only want to know how you do it. Of course I understand your time and experience with tuning should not be just given away totally. Your example is even more proof that what you are doing is not something most do.


Great job on the engine again, David should be very happy with the finished product.

Default 1482 hp

Sorry for jumping on you a little I took it the wrong way.I would say one thing you're seing with you're deal with a single t is the air inlet gets gets hot fast with the properly sized twins air inlet is way cooler.oil control is another little secret any oil in the chamber bang detonation.Ignition system is another one.low compression deals 8.5 and lower usually like more timing.Camshaft is also a player.I'm no genius i just play around with things until i think they work well and thats what has worked for me.The piston usually sets about .010 in the hole with a .040 gasket the combustion chamber is a brodix 11x cnc deal it has squish pads on both sides and the pistons are a reverse dish with quench pads also not just a bathtub.the real key to the power is the turbo's the turbo is the single most important thing you can do way more important than heads /cam/everything with the exception of building a stout motor.We as of right now on the small blocks have played with 64 different vararations of the turbos.I know thats not spelled right.When you get it right .hold on.But like i said every motor is different my engine masters chrysler 470 was 13.2 to 1 with 280 pounds cranking on pump gas and liked 26 degrees total it would actually lose 100 hp at 36.even on race gas.but some motors like timing some don't.I don't think there is any set deal.A general rule is with a small combustion chamber on a big displacement motor with a lot of arm in it and a flat top piston i would generally see it didn't need as much timing than a big domed big combustion chambered motor of the same size .But i don't no until i try it.thanks for the good words.Tom

Thats good info Tom!

I had worried about compression ratios below 8.5 not giving enough power on street cars when not in boost, making them lazy at low rpm.

When you say good oil control, are you meaning better oil ring control or do you suggest running a evac system on boosted street engines?

I see allot of people struggling with PCV set-ups on street cars trying to relieve crankcase pressure and control oil leaks. Have any thoughts there??

Again thanks for the help.
