Default New motor for the Tantrum

Its finally done. Still needs paint. We dynoed it yesterday and made 693hp at 5500 rpm through 5700 rpm, 733 tq at 4500 rpm.

Its a 555ci gen. 4, bowtie tall deck roller motor. Merlin 320 iron heads w/ little work, 1050 dominator, 9.6-1 comp. ratio, 26* timing on 93 pump gas.

Maybe I will sqeeze in a sea trial befor it gets too cold...

Awesome! If I may ask why so little timing? Did you check egts? Don't want to see any valves tulip.

No blower, all motor. We tried 29* but there was no increase, that is the pull in the video. Not sure on the egt, but the a/f was good. I will check my sheets for egt.
