506 HP 498 Ft. Lbs with the final tune that Barry said would be best with my purposes and set up w/ 1 5/8 primaries. Dynoed on 93 pump gas from the station down the street from Barry Allens. In the 520's with big tube headers but lose that gain in torque... The engine has a lot of room to grow, and is super tight so will definitely free up and put out more as she runs. Also lost a few on the dyno with no PCV... I couldnt be happier with my engine, and cant thank the Ohio Mafia enough for a hard working and fun weekend....
 

You've built an awesome street machine that's got a lot of strip potential with some gears and a converter, I'll look forward to hearing how it does at the track as is.

Rog does that mean I can run the cheaper 87 octane gas????
 
Thanks Ivan, yea I am very happy with the way it came out. And I gained a TON of respect for the practice of good engine building... a TON more work than I would have ever thought... glad I got to be a small part of the process... learned a lot being around the boys over the weekend, and then getting to listen to BA explain timing, tuning and how everything comes together was awesome as well... but I have to give myself some credit, cause I think I did a jam up job on cleaning everything.... I was the machine shop version of the dish scrubber!! Would never in a million years thought something that was full of oil had to be so frickin clean!!!

That is good news he kept refilling it! That means you got the dyno time an you are in good shape. AND he made sure you are Thanks to all of you great folks who helped out my buddy!    Very nice work and numbers guys!!                    As for cleaning parts, I have Nurse Bobbi do it since Mr.Happyface moved ahead to putting the stuff together around in 2006. He will clean parts, but most of the time Bobbi gets on it on her days off so they are ready and laid out ahead of time.   You are correct, clean-clean-clean, just like an operation room. I always tease the Nurse to have all the stuff steralized                   It looks as though, it is too bad Mr.Happyface has school, otherwise I would have had to send him down to help you get all that work done SH

JP,  
Does Ralph get an eye twitch every time you mention hyper pistons?

You have no idea Steve..... you think he is hard on them here? You oughta talk to him about them in person.... after spending the weekend right beside him, I doubted my pistons would live through the 2500 rpm break in process, let alone anything else!!!! JK Ralfy..... one of the last things he said to me last weekend was "if your next build doesn't include K1's and Wiseco's...... dont call me....

Thanks rog, nice friendly compression, alot of power at relatively low rpms... I couldnt be happier buddy.... Thanks again!!
